Mentors who were comfortable in their own skin & unapologetic in their mission to advance equity gave me courage to pay it forward. As a #firstgen physician, I know how it transformed me. I educate to offer trainees the same. #RepresentationMatters @FirstGenMD #MedEd

If you're first in your family to attend college and interested in medicine, the Ohio State Department of Neurology is hosting a pre-med event for you! Come hear from doctors about their medical journey and learn about the field of Neurology! This coming Tuesday 3/1 at 7:30pm EST

One of the greatest reminders of why becoming a doctor was worth the stress and tears: hearing a Mexican mom say "I'm glad my doctor speaks a language that I can understand." #RepresentationMatters #MedTwitter #SiSePuede #firstgen

Im trembling as I share that your boi is heading to Harvard Med for Summer Research ‘22! 😭 Me, from statistically being more likely to drop out of high school, 5x MCAT Retaker, 3x Med school applicant, to now most recognize institution. “From Hood to Harvard” #CauseGod #FirstGen

#MedStudentTwitter – what were some of the expected and unexpected expenses that you encountered during your fourth year and the transition to residency? Things like Step 2 CK registration, ERAS expenses, moving costs, etc… @olsonplanner @Inside_TheMatch

I remember a mentor I had told me I’ll never get into medical school. During my residency interview today the PD told me “You have the most outstanding LORs I have ever seen and everyone said you’re one of the best med students they’ve worked with” 🥺I cried- after my interview
First Gen, MD retweeted
Y’ALL: lemme tell you about all the places that rejected me for residency… then invited me for fellowship… & now invite me to give Grand Rounds & Visiting Professorships! 💪🏽
Remember: #Match2022 rejections aren’t personal. You’re #StillDope!! And delayed is not denied. ✊🏽
Omg just got my first rejection 😓. Ngl I shed a tear in the bathroom but I’m reminding myself that this is part of the process and it will all be ok. #WeSTILLGotThis #PedsMatch2022

Connect with the people you meet along the interview trail. They are your future colleagues and maybe even your co-residents.

From barely a 3.0 Undergrad GPA and <10 percentile MCAT, to induction into the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Medical Honor Society. Life’s a trip, and I’m super humbled that I get to be a part of it. #OrthoTwitter #MedTwitter

USMLE scores have little to do with the kind of doctor you will ultimately become. These tests do not assess listening skills, empathy, kindness or compassion. Plenty of doctors with low scores are beloved by their patients.
First Gen, MD retweeted
I’ve gotten a ton of questions about how to discuss a failed boards exam in prep for residency apps.
If you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I failed COMLEX Level 1. But you’d also know that I matched to the program of my dreams.
Thread.

Can’t believe I’m in my 4th year of medical school and SURVIVED to tell my story. I feel so grateful and privileged to be applying to my dream career. “Momma we made it! (almost)” #NewProfilePic #EMbound #Match2022 #medtwitter #LetsGetIt 😎👌🏾
