My dad has an infectious smile on his face when reminiscing about his childhood memories and his life as a Pediatrician. At the present time my dad is a successful physician, but life wasn 't always easy for him. He faced many setbacks in his early life that have led him into adulthood. Applying to college was his first difficulty because his family had no money. He was able to go to college and eventually go to Medical school which was very hard for him because it was in a foreign country. In his early years of practicing medicine, he learned that not everyone can be saved. Family, friends and patients motivate him to be the best he can be. He has a clear understanding of how precious and valuable human life can be.

He comes of a little bit brash. But after conducting this interview I learned a little bit about why he is the way his. “I have a lot of hidden compassion, which not many people know about. Both my parents raised my sister and me in a loving household. We are very lucky that we grew up the way we did. “My husband is a very driven and intelligent man, he is always motivated to be successful". Education is the paramount importance to him, His family is the foundation for being successful. “My family motivates me to be a better person”. I know my children look up to me and it’s my job to be the best father I can be.”
Queens is unlike any place, my dad describes his early childhood with a bright smile. Queens made me feel like I had a sense of belonging. "Your friends with all the kids on your block, you feel connected to each and every one. He 's says a great thing to have is friends who you have known since you were little so you can share the memories together. One friend in particular, Paul had an impact on his life. They attended the same school together from Kindergarten to College. They were always trying to outdo one another. "We were always motivating one another". In terms of scholastics abilities, it was pivotal in preparing me for college and later on Medical school. “It gave me a good work ethic.” His parents always wanted him to surround himself with positive influences. During the early years of high school my dad wasn 't exactly the model
I have always had a high admiration for the impact that physicians have on families. At an early age, my younger sister had major heart surgery. Being four, I was too young to fully grasp what this meant for my family, but I quickly learned the grief my parents endured thinking their only daughter would not live past two. Dr. Jane Doe saved my sister, giving me a friend for life. I have set my goal to be like countless doctors who save lives daily and improve the quality
My father is the oldest son of his family. He has nine siblings, four brothers and five sisters. He is a very hard worker individual. He started working at a very young age in order to help his family. Right after he graduated from high school, my father enrolled in the air force. My father is a very persistent man; he does not give up easily. He is a very happy go lucky person. He is really social and outgoing, always making jokes, telling stories and making other people laugh. He is really passionate about drawing and designing things. He enjoys working with his hands and going outdoors. He is more adventurous than my mother.
The doctors who are involved in restoring that individual back to health have the opportunity to witness a miracle; the miracle of life and healing. Becoming a doctor is more than administering medication and seeing patients. Being a doctor is being a friend, forming a familial bond, and sharing the love that a patient needs. It is being someone who gives the patient hope when they feel that there is none. Being a doctor is witnessing an impossible situation become possible. I have chosen to pursue a career in the medical field because I want to expose others to the compassion that all should feel from a healthcare provider. I believe that if I can provide a sliver of hope to a patient they will have enough faith in their process to keep trying. I want to witness first hand the wonders of nursing a premature baby back to health. I want to show love and compassion to the family who recently lost a loved one. I want to be that light; the light that shines in the midst of a dark place.
I’ve always had an interest in becoming a Doctor. Even as a young child. Unfortunately, I lost my grandpa January 23, 2016 to a Lung Disease. He and I had a great relationship. He inspired me to be the best that I can be. Through his battle with Lung disease, I saw how the Doctors cared for him in a special way. My father suffered from a stroke that nearly changed his life. Watching him progress and get treated from amazing Doctors opened my eyes. That’s when I realized becoming a Doctor would allow me to care for people the same way my loved ones were cared
When asked how the attitudes of others affect his happiness he said, "Other people's attitudes don't affect me as uch as they used to." He is still sensitive to the feelings and attitudes of his family, simply because he cares, but he is learning to go along for the sake of peace. Avoiding unnecessary stress has been an important lesson in his life; "Practicing dentistry was very stressful, think about it Ð most people would come in with the same expressions. They hated coming to the dentist, hated the experience and wanted to leave as quickly as possible. I built a business by taking good care of my patients; I'd often see three generations within a family, but when you hear negative all day long and are
The following words by Aristotle, “Whole is greater than the sum of its parts”, resonate deeply with my personality. As a human and future physician, I believe one must learn to look at the whole picture of any situation instead of dwelling on certain parts. Since the age of seven, I have been attracted to the field of osteopathy. I grew up in a small town, where there were not a lot of doctors in the area. Whenever I went to visit a doctor there was at least one to two hour wait. While waiting for the doctor, I noticed how people’s facial expression and muscle would slightly relax after visiting the doctor’s office, even if it was for less than five minutes. Even though not all patients received good news, they seemed a bit relaxed after knowing what their next step of treatment will be. As long as I can remember I wanted to be the reason behind someone’s relaxed face or smile by providing everything possible within my power.
The patience, compassion and encouragement of one person improved my family’s last years with its patriarch in countless ways. It was this improvement that inspired me to pursue a career as an
Looking back on my life, there were many difficult times my family and I went through. Those difficult times, however, became my motivation for pursuing a career in the medical field. Growing up my brother had to overcome many different obstacles. At five years old he started talking after we thought he never would. In kindergarten he contracted meningococcal meningitis and was hospitalized for a long period of time. A couple years later his appendix ruptured while waiting in the hospital emergency room. After a couple weeks he had to be transferred to Akron Children’s Hospital where he stayed for another month. During those times
The person who first sparked my interest in pursuing a career in medicine was my Mom. She used to tell me a story and say “you are one of my many miracles sweetie.” After being diagnosed with Hodgkin’s Lymphoma and undergoing multiple rounds of chemo and radiation, the doctor told my Mom she would
His ability to not get offended easily and to see that name calling is childish, is an important trait to have as a parent. His morals on respecting and loving everyone, even if they are not favored by the majority, makes him an appreciable
I have seen many aspects of medicine than i feel many people my age have. I understand how it feels to be comforted by a friendly smile and confidence from a doctor. My family history is what sparked my interest in medicine at a young age and my recent interactions with doctors has kept it alive.

Life is filled with various emotions that help create our daily experience. The joy of seeing a genuine smile is truly contagious. The reason I decided to pursue a career in the medical profession is to keep that joy spreading between the people of this world. Medicine became intriguing to me as my education advanced. Medicine is a field that has developed major technological advances. Knowing that there will always be more to learn and to improve greatly interests me. As my knowledge of the human body progressed I became truly fascinated. The various components that come together to create the being that we are is a true work of art. Even though is it a wonderful masterpiece, there are still flaws that can be detrimental.
My grandfather has always loved medicine. He graduated from USC’s Keck School of Medicine and then became a doctor for 50 years. Over the years, I have watched him help neighbors, friends and myself and I respect how much he loves the people he heals.
When I was younger, my father and I were in car accident. The other driver crossed a red light and unfortunately hit us. I remember clearly how he not only worried about me he also checked to see if the other driver was fine. This showed me how of a caring person he is. When other people are in need, he always does his best to help them in whatever he can possibly can. Ever since then he has been a huge influence. He has taught me how to work hard for anything that I want to accomplish. As well as not to give up on my goals and most importantly to always be kind to one another. My parents are divorced; however, this fact did not change the relationship between my father and me. He has always worked day and night to provide my brothers and me a comfortable lifestyle. His attitude towards life has had a great influence in my life. I know that I have to put in the effort to accomplish my nursing degree. But in this process, I will try to be kind-hearted to
