Over the past 9 months, I've become increasingly interested in rural family medicine. I love biology and the science of medicine, but I want to be really intentional about combining that love with my passion for serving other, for creating strong interpersonal relationships. I think that love and service, trite as it may sound, are two of the most important pieces to a life well-lived, and I've begun to realize that the best place for me to create a career based on those pillars is through rural family medicine.
I'm looking for more physicians/clinics like this one: https://www.aafp.org/news/practice-professional-issues/20180606valdez.html
I want to learn more about clinics that are comitted to serving underserved (whether that be urban or rural - the beauty of a rural landscape just attracts me a little bit more) populations and value interpersonal relationships highly - I'm hoping to spend the summer doing some form of scribing/shadowing/clinical volunteering at a clinic like this (my school provides funding for unpaid summer opportunities). If you have any similar articles/examples, I'd love if you shared them!
