Minority med students reflect on their journeys to becoming MDs
Two Rush Medical College students have been matched into their first positions as MDs. We hear their stories and what comes next for them.
In 1847, Rush Medical College awarded a Black man named David Jones Peck the first doctor of medicine degree in the U.S. Since then, countless Black and other minority students have earned MDs. Nevertheless, only 6 percent of doctors are Black in the U.S.
Reset hears from two students about their journeys, why they’re entering medicine and what they hope to accomplish as they get their careers started.
