How do I set goals for myself? How do I get started with research? How does someone with a wife and child manage med school? How do I become a better dancer?

We take these questions and more to our new friend Timothy Light, a first-year med student at Rocky Vista University College of Osteopathic Medicine. Listen to how a student at the top of their game manages impostor syndrome, time management, and making time for family.

Kama and Austin take a dive into the ongoing discussion surrounding Osteopathic Medicine. We discuss our decision to enter into Osteopathic Medicine. We also give a woefully brief overview of the history of Osteopathic Medicine. While we researched, we also found some unsettling information about racial prejudice in turn of the century medical education reform, the effects of which are still being felt today.  |
