As a future physician, how do you plan to use your role to benefit members of your community? Do you think volunteering is important?

"Bettering my community is going to be a big part of what I do as a physician. I already volunteer at the local children's hospital and plan to continue my volunteer work after medical school. One specific way I will help my community members is by holding free educational workshops every month. The workshops will tackle tough issues that the community faces, such as narcotics abuse and increased teen suicide rates."

As a future physician, your knowledge and help will be greatly needed and appreciated by your community. Show that you are willing to be generous with your time and knowledge. Before your interview with Nova Southeastern University, consider how you one day want to help benefit your community in your role. If you are struggling for ideas, a physician can benefit their community by teaching their community about the health resources available, offering free or reduced-fee services to low-income families, and holding free workshops on topics such as sexual health or addiction.
