On today's episode I am joined by one of my fellow medical school classmates, Daniel Reyes, who talks about his "non-traditional" path to medical school. We discuss his journey from teaching in California, to becoming a medical student in New Jersey. Dan also discusses tools that he believes has made his medical school experience the most impactful. We also delve into our individual experiences as students of color and give advice for maneuvering the culture of medicine as a student of color interested in entering the medical field. Dan also describes his experience of advocating for his Spanish-speaking patients in order to ensure they are receiving the highest quality of care. We also break down the four year of medical school and what can be expected of those interested in pursuing medical school. This is definitely an episode you don't want to miss.
