Yesterday, a new group of interns officially started residency, and seeing all the July 1 social media posts reminded me just how overwhelming that first day can feel.

I have OFFICIALLY survived my surgery intern year! If there's one thing I learned, it's that intern year is something you survive one day, one rotation, and sometimes one patient at a time.

After nearly four decades of having the privilege of practicing osteopathic primary care in a wide variety of onsite and offsite settings across rural clinics, urban health systems, underserved communities, I've learned that medicine's most important tools are only as good as the hands and values guiding them. That lesson has consistently been validated for me as I’ve moved from the exam room into the classroom where I now have the privilege of helping to prepare cohorts of the next Read more...
