Meet our students
"I desire to take care of entire families from birth to end-of-life care. I think that’s something really special about being a rural family doc."
"I think what I learned is the way you are with humans is going to take you so much further. Everyone's human at the end of the day; we're treating humans, we are human."
"Growing up in a small town and tight-knit community, I believe everyone deserves access to health care, and realizing that they may have experienced issues getting care was something that I wanted to make sure that I addressed."
