While applying to medical school, it is vital to select schools that will provide a conducive environment for not only academic and professional success, but also personal growth and happiness. I chose to apply to the University of Arizona College of Medicine-Phoenix (UACOMP) because the school’s values align closely with my own, and the school’s culture will provide a helpful climate for fostering my personal and professional development.
The UACOMP promotes values that I too advocate and believe in. Demonstrating my excellence, collaborative, innovative, community-based, and servant leadership ideals by volunteering at my local hospital, tutoring students at my local high school, and interning at the Fellowship of Orthopaedic Researchers

She filed suit against the University Medical Center and her anesthesiologist, Dr. W for medical malpractice and requested the court to infer negligence under the doctrine of res ipsa loquitur. Dr. W was fully responsible for Ms. Shahine’s care while she was under anesthesia and Ms. Shahine obviously could not assess the true cause of injury while she was anesthetized. However, Dr. W provided evidence of non-negligence by thoroughly charting in Ms. Shahine’s medical record proper positioning and padding. Another anesthesiologist provided the court with uncontroverted
This great disparity in wealth and opportunity has prompted me to join the American Red Cross to help with disaster relief and mental health, as well as volunteering at the women’s and children’s shelter. The opportunity to assist ailing communities makes Marshall University special in comparison to some of the other schools. Not only this, but Marshall provides a great opportunity to pursue some research endeavors. If you are wondering why I am applying, the answer is simple. The opportunity to study medicine at Marshall is too ideal to pass up. Marshall is a school that I believe can enhance my love for medicine, and teach me to be a veritable and meticulous physician. Being a Montana resident has put me at a disadvantage while applying to medical school. Montana does not have its own medical school, and so I must seek an out-of-state school. This puts me at a disadvantage since most schools prioritize in-state students before the out-of-state ones. I chose to apply to Marshall because it is a school that I would love to attend and be a part of their excellent medical
I am interested in Emory’s School of Medicine MD program mainly impart to their commitment to train physicians to serve the community. I believe community involvement as a physician is key to diminish health inequalities where they initially develop. In addition, Emory’s emphasis towards understanding the biopsychosocial conditions of each patient will be vital in honing in on an accurate diagnosis and tailoring my approach as a physician to accommodate these factors while meeting their needs.

A Marketing strategy is necessary to develop and implement for all health care organizations. Rush University Medical Center in Chicago learned this lesson in the most difficult circumstances. The leadership assumed the reputation of the facility would be enough to stand up against all other health care facilities in the surrounding area; supplementary publicity or lobbying was necessary. As time passed on, it was very obvious by the drastic decrease in patient census and revenue that something had to change. The implementation of an environmental scan in that particular instance would greatly influence the facility in a positive manner. It is an approach that assists in the process of identifying and recognizing all the marketing elements involved. The first step of the environmental scan is an assessment of the five major environmental forces and trends. Next, evaluate the potential impact on the organization’s target market and adjust the organizations marketing mix strategy as appropriate (Berkowitz, 2011).

My decision to apply to PSUCOM was markedly influenced by the direct student involvement with the central Pennsylvania community. The fact that PSUCOM has a strong community engagement dovetails perfectly with my interest to work with medically underserved and economically disadvantaged community. Another unique quality that I admire about PSUCOM is its supportive and nurturing environment that allows students to make connections, learn, and grow as a future physician. As a result, making connections with other students will allow me to understand and embrace the cultural diversity of others.
