Personal Statement
My dream of becoming a doctor started when I met a young man by the name of Jonier. This occurred when I volunteered with the Big Brothers and Sisters of America. I did not know it at the time, but I was being assigned a very special young man. Jonier came from a single parent home. His mother worked long hours and did not have a male role model in his life. This played an important part in shaping his personality and academic achievement. Along the way, he encountered many struggles and listened to my advice. This wisdom taught him about what was most important and who he could become. During this process, I felt for this young man and wanted to assist him as much as possible. He was struggling with a lack of social skills and the attention he so desperately needed. As we overcame various struggles together, I realized I had a passion for helping others and making a difference in their lives. Never giving into the temptations of college life, as I always remained focused on becoming a doctor. Achieving these goals, requires constantly putting my studies first.

This fueled my sense of motivation in assisting others. It focused on not only my own personal satisfaction, but the joy I experience when others succeeded. I saw a lot of myself in Jonier. This is because I was a first generation English speaker in my family and related to what he was going through. Knowing how fortunate I am, is what motivates me to become a doctor. After I left Big Brothers and Sisters of America, I decided to continue with my education at the University of Connecticut.
One of my many objectives, is to become a practicing physician in the field of medical research and technology. I want to be on the leading edge of discovering new advances in medicine that will be beneficial to those who are suffering from a variety of conditions. I feel that if everyone works together, we can find cures for a number of diseases (i.e. cancer and Alzheimer's).
As a result, I look forward to the day when I can mentor someone who is coming into the field of medicine. Growing up, I was taught many hard lessons which I used as positive learning experiences and carried many of them into adulthood. I feel that if we learn from these lessons early on, future problems can be resolved. The same this applies to the medical community, as we should all come together to discuss important ideas about these changes and new ventures. If…
Becoming a physician's assistant was not an easy decision. I knew that the work would cut into my social life and take up most of my free time. I knew that I would have many sleepless nights as I balanced my studies with my job. However, the more I delved into the actual work of being a physician's assistant, the more I wanted to succeed. My accomplishments pale in comparison
As I have expanded my work efforts at the hospital, I have realized more and more that the human element in such relationships is irreplaceable. While technology may shape the future of the human race, only humanity can touch individual lives. Even the greatest advances in medical knowledge and techniques require similar progress in healthcare accessibility, better education about health issues, and strong doctor-patient relationships. Spending time watching the doctors
I have a strong desire to contribute to the field of medical law, perhaps in malpractice, to ensure that physicians are held accountable. This is important to me, and I know that by the time I am admitted to the bar I may pursue a different path, but the important thing for me right now is that law gives me a tremendous sense of purpose. I have proven myself in
Pathologists are often called 'the doctor's doctor ' -- when other doctors are experiencing an impasse, they go to a pathologist for advice, to provide clarity. As someone who has always enjoyed working as a teacher and preparing teaching materials, I look forward to this role in relation to my fellow physicians. Upon arriving in the United States to practice medicine, I gained experience in the field of pathology-related research,
