20 years later, hereās what PA school actually taught meā¦
Not just how to diagnose, treat, or survive exams.
It taught me how to function on too little sleep, eat lunch in record time, ask for help when I needed it, and keep showing up even when I wasnāt sure I could.
It taught me that medicine is a lifelong journey of learning. That some of your closest friendships will be forged during the hardest seasons. And that youāre far more capable than you think.
To those of you applying, studying, surviving clinicals, or waiting for that acceptance letter: keep going. The long days wonāt last forever, but the lessons and relationships will stay with you for a lifetime.
And if you need a little guidance along the way, me and my team of coaches are here for you. ā¤ļø
