Why I Chose Health Care
"I became interested in becoming a physician at a young age as I was always fascinated with the human body and really enjoyed biology, health, and other sciences in school. My father died from lung cancer when I was an 18-year-old freshman in college. This experience had a tremendous influence on me, and I made a firm commitment to be a physician."Department of Pediatrics
