The artist that I decided to research was Lee S. Ivey. She was great at making sculptures. She did oil painting and drawings as well. Her paintings were amazing. However, I’m more fascinated with her sculptures because they’re so different and they tell a story. She even have a piece called “Deaf President Now”, which is currently on display at Gallaudet University. Pieces like this really shows how she was part of the Deaf community, and how she saw the talent and aspirations of the community. I like the mysteriousness of her art and how it causes you to wonder what emotions she was feeling when she created the piece, and what the message was that she was trying to convey. All of her pieces seem to have some kind of message. For example,

They serve as pillars of wisdom and guidance while exhibiting communication adroitness with care teams and patients to engineer top-notch medical care. To maintain high standards, effective medical professionals are constantly taking in new information through continuing education, placing providers at the pinnacle of knowledge. Moreover, physicians require affective aptitude as they must convey empathy during patient interactions. All these attributes draw me to seek the personal challenge and resulting responsibilities that are demanded. I desire to become an important contribution to society in a field I am passionate

A physician, just like the healers of the past, are concerned with promoting, maintaining or restoring human health through the treatment of disease, injury, and other physical and mental impairments. Similarities still exist in that the medical practice properly requires both a detailed knowledge of the academic science based disciplines underlying diseases and their treatment – the science of medicine – and also a decent competence in its applied practice – the art or craft of medicine.

Eleanor Roosevelt once said, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams” (Eleanor Roosevelt). My dream is to help those in need to the best of my ability. After I graduate I hope to become a medical esthetician. A medical esthetician differs from the average esthetician you’d find in a salon. They’re usually working in hospitals or burn clinics, but it is not uncommon to find them working for a dermatologist or plastic surgeon. I hope to find work in Ocala, Florida in either a burn clinic or with a dermatologist. Throughout my whole life it has been my passion to help others and to live in Florida. Unfortunately, I do not have the stomach to become a nurse or doctor nor the money to move to Florida, hence why I’m still in Pennsylvania and currently working in a salon. Throughout my research I have discovered the need for this career, educational requirements, the salary and trajectory, and also the living comparison to help my dreams become a reality.

As described by Dr. Atul Gawande in his book Complications, medicine “is an imperfect science, an enterprise of constantly changing knowledge… fallible individuals” making medicine different from other scientific fields

In addition, teaching is a significant part of any doctor’s life. As physicians, we are constantly educating not only our patients and their families, but also other physicians, residents and medical students. A physician may know all the medical information in the world, but the care of a patient is primarily predicated on that physician’s ability to successfully

-With the professionalization of the medical education, nobody is his own doctor anymore. You don’t get medical education by reading medical books on your won

Medicine is an art, it is science and business. There are scientific and artistic aspects those

In order to be consistent, efficient, and safe, developing mastery and expertise of a certain subject is no longer enough. Ignorance is not the issue, its ineptitude that is creating the problem. In Medicine, Gawande write,

Is medicine an art form or a social science? Lu Hsun relates this concept in this story by bringing opposite

The doctor does not desire power or management to cure a patient. Instead, a doctor needs experience, passion, and the will to decide when and how to use medical technology.

Kehinde Wiley is a New York based artist whose paintings focus on the themes of empowering black men and combining classical and contemporary styles.

Students go through four years of medical schools and countless years of residency just to learn and practice medicine and its connection with humanities. Once they are done with rigorous training, they believe that they, themselves, know everything and that every patient will leave the hospital or clinic cured, treated, and happy. However, that is not the case. No matter how one does on their med school boards, physicians are prone to mistakes. Physicians have encountered at least one mistake during their career. Different people have different perspectives concerning errors in the medicine field. Atul Gawande’s “Complications: A Surgeon’s Note on an Imperfect Science” and Dr. Goldman’s TED Talk emphasize errors in a hospital or clinical setting.

ADHD, defiance disorder, pregnancy, these are just few of the things medicalized in the West (Davies 1995). With the rising prestige of Doctors in the 19th century, came a widening of the gap of knowledge between Doctors and the general population (Davies 1995). Doctors have kept a sort of lock on medical knowledge, enabling them to medicalize all sorts of “issues” aided by the idea of the medical mystique. But with the emergence of medicalization and cures that are being searched for by Doctors, a new problem has arisen. This fixation on curing illnesses has led to Doctors viewing patients as experiments and not as human beings, this is seen especially in technologically advanced societies as exemplified in the movie Wit. In addition to this new problem, there are clear establishments of hierarchy between medical professionals such as Doctors and nurses as well as the emotional detachments with the patients which can lead to patients feeling left out and alone.

Different fashions will come in and out of style but people want to be able to stand out in their own manner showing the world how they express themselves. A common form of self-expression is by getting a piercing or tattoo, something that can set a person apart from the majority. Body piercings and tattoos on women at one time were unacceptable and distasteful in the United States. However over time women having assorted types of body art has become more acceptable in society. Today young women at the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, use piercings and tattoos as a form of self-expression that is vastly encouraged by peers and social media. Each woman has a different reason for why they personally want a piercing or a tattoo but are there some factors that have influenced the college community of women as a whole?
