I started thinking about a career in medicine in high school. My mom loved and respected our family doctor — I am one of 4 children, so she was very familiar with the office! — and I set up a meeting with Tim Ryan, MD. It was my first glimpse into the world of family medicine, and there was no going back. Senior year in college, I decided to delay my application to medical school (much to my parents’ dismay) to spend a year in the Jesuit Volunteer Corps in Mobile, Alabama.
