Making a Difference: The Free Clinic Extraordinary Volunteers

Free Clinic Student

"Honestly, I initially decided to volunteer at The Free Clinic because a friend said that I might like it. I quickly fell in love with The Free Clinic and kept going back. I love serving those in need, finding creative solutions with limited resources and teaching underclassman. I enjoyed the teaching aspect of clinic so much, I am considering going into academic medicine at some point in my career."
