I learned so much about medicine, and life overall, during my time as a PA student. Throughout the didactic phase, I gradually built a strong foundation of medical knowledge that I was then able to apply and advance while out on clinical rotations. During my training, one of my professors encouraged my cohort to stop and ask ourselves, ‘if not you, then who?’ when faced with complex cases. This has become one of my favorite mottos because it reminds me to do my best to go the extra mile when treating patients. As a result, I strive to treat the whole person rather than just a disease or diagnosis.
