Local doctors follow hearts to meet global challenges
An old college classmate, AuCo shared an article today on her dad published in our local paper.
I respect both Dr. Guerrero and Duy for their military services and their humanitarian work, respectively. I remember Auco telling us stories about her dad, who I believed at the time was also a doctor at UCI's medical center when we were in undergrad. I vividly remember stories of Auco sharing her father's experience and her memories of her summer Vietnam trip. What's funny is that I think I remember that her father also collected these interesting artifacts from his world travels and was an avid game hunter. Talk about a unique interest!
Anyhow, congratulations to Auco for fulfilling her dream of pursuing medicine this year at Midwestern (Oh, those pre-med days were ultimately worth it right?)! I'd think it be interesting to check out Vietnam one of these summers as part of their medical mission trips.
Ultimately, I think this is one thing students should really consider as cliche as that sounds. There were moments when I was originally doing both AMCAS and Pharmcas when I debated these type of opportunities.
Is it just coincidental that we had a speaker today in Career Development on a similar service topic: Pharmacist Professional Service?
