“Being a doctor isn’t necessarily about saving lives, it’s about helping people live the best version of the life they’ve been given. That mindset will allow you to craft the most patient-centered care and connect with individuals across disciplines.”
"When applying to medical school, I focused on MD/MPH programs because my passion for medicine has its roots in public health. I now have a health systems knowledge base with which to care for individual patients as well as their larger communities."
“Through a lens of social justice and cultural humility, I am committed to using my personal and professional experiences to advocate for policies and interventions that prioritize equitable access to healthcare, especially for minoritized communities.”
“As I eagerly anticipate the next phase of my career as a surgical resident, I am profoundly grateful for the comprehensive education and unwavering support I received at Tufts."
“Tufts’ PA program taught me many things in the classroom and beyond. Through lectures, simulation experiences, and inter-professional events with various schools I have learned the importance of caring for patients using a well-rounded approach."
“The field of public health is incredibly dynamic and Tufts offers a variety of courses that may be outside your comfort zone. I found that venturing into unfamiliar territory was invaluable.”
“After graduation, I aspire to continue expanding my knowledge, develop clinical expertise, and build strong interprofessional relationships to ensure the best quality of care for the community I will serve.”
"After the MBS program, I'm proud to continue my journey at Tufts as a medical student. I strive to marry clinical skills, curiosity, and compassion in my future work as a physician."
