Through this program, I have been guided by mentor, Amina Gonzalez and a cohort of 22 students. I am taking my medical school prerequisites with my cohort, and have been loving my science classes, for although they are challenging, I learn a lot about how life works. We have had multiple workshops and presentations, that have made me informed me on how to apply to medical school, how to be a competitive candidate, and what to expect. Moreover, joining Phi Delta Epsilon has helped me see what I can do by going to medical school and becoming a doctor. One of my favorite workshops I attended was the suture workshop because it gave me hands on experience.…
Choosing to study medicine is not a decision I have taken lightly. It is not a career I have wanted to do since a particularly young age, but a life changing event prompted my choice. I thought very long and hard before deciding to apply for medical school. The same is true for deciding to apply for the Physician Assistant program. My story began at the age of 10 years, when I woke up at 3:00 am at my mother's scream because my father suddenly became unable to speak and move.…
Ever since I was a little girl, I found myself fascinated with the intricacies of the human body. I would spend hours playing doctor or nurse with my sister, and even when she did not want to play with me I would improvise with my dolls. I would watch medical TV shows such as “Greys Anatomy” and I would continue to fall in love with the thought of medicine and helping people with their treatment and potentially saving their lives. Working as a medical scribe in an OBGYN office this past summer has only furthered my interest into becoming a physician’s assistant.…
I already have a basic idea of what I want to do for a living. I have always had a soft heart and empathetic mind for people. Already knowing this about myself, I know I absolutely have to pursue a job that serves other lives. I want to help people so badly, and the first step to deciding that’s what I needed to do involved changing my life plan. Sitting in that chair at the computer, imagining life at USU, I changed my whole path.…
Physician associates have taken up a collaborative professional role in the medical sector whom collectively work with doctors, surgeons and general practitioners as well as numerous other medical roles to provide care as a multidisciplinary team. Although they can work as a group, physician associates can work independently or with a supervisor for appropriate support. They are known to be the new healthcare professionals who, while not a doctor works to the medical model with the knowledge and can deliver the care for the practice under levels of supervision. The role of the physician associate was first shown to be a success within the USA healthcare system before the importance of the role was recognised in the UK. They are able to provide help for the lack of available medics and ultimately to improve the healthcare system within the NHS.…

The opportunity to provide care and to use medical knowledge for patient benefit compels me to become a doctor.…
In today’s gizmo world and our day to day lives moving at high speeds, wealth is being given importance over health, which is neglected in the name of having no time for its maintenance. Having completed my undergraduate studies in the field of dentistry along with my four years of diversified experience in the health science field as a full-fledged practising dentist, I have come to realise that health is underestimated not by a few group of people but by a large population. I believe that there is requirement of awareness of maintenance of good health and the prevention of various diseases. Through the field of Public Health, I aim to…

When I was a child when someone asked me, "What are you going to be when you grow up?" My answer was always, "I am going to be a nurse. " When I attended college the first time, my answer became, "I 'm not sure what I want to be." Right out of high school making the decision of what you are going to do for the rest of your life is scary, so I juggled back and forth from teaching and nursing. I eventually decided to take a break for a while until I knew what I needed to do.…
This life event reaffirmed my desire to practice medicine. At this point I committed myself to becoming a physician-scientist who reaches new scientific frontiers, and at the same time, is able to provide compassionate and effective patient care by the bedside. An M.D./PH.D.

Having been exposed to the joys and frustrations of science and medicine, I am confident in my commitment to pursuing a path of becoming a…
As a Master of Science in Public Health student at Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, I have recently begun a search for practicum opportunities to support and enrich my education in public health research and program evaluation. Consequently, I am writing to express my interest in and enthusiasm towards the Survey Research Summer Internship at NORC at the University of Chicago for the summer of 2018. Before becoming a student at Johns Hopkins, my previous work experiences spanned a range from academia, to on-the-ground field programming, to the governmental public health workforce internationally and in the US. My interest in innovative, collaborative, and multidisciplinary research led me to perform meta-analyses with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, design and coordinate household vulnerability surveys in Ethiopia, conduct varied geospatial analysis research, and work with HIV and maternal health programs both in Uganda and in Baltimore City. Currently, I am a team member with a…
