In every instance that a patient has asked me this question, I was more than happy to give them a detailed answer. Medical providers are not miracle workers – they are knowledgeable. That knowledge is what you need to leverage.

I knew so many intelligent, talented, dedicated people and we all knew that only a handful of us who applied would actually get accepted. After years of grinding work, of watching myself and my classmates put school above everything else in our lives, I realized something – it was never going to stop.
