The interviewers want to understand where you feel healthcare should most evolve and how aligned your perspective is with their mission and values. As they state on their website, "Yale creates physicians and scientists who can address new diseases as they come along, and that means having curiosity and learning from our patients." There is more to be explored on their website regarding the scientific innovations they are pioneering. Whatever your perspective, convey a hopeful vision of where you feel today's medical innovations, groundbreaking realms of research, and breakthroughs are heading now and what that could lead to in the future.

"I would like to see health-based organizations and facilities put more effort into putting their patients at the center of everything they do. That could mean cutting down wait times, improving safety in hospitals, and even engaging with the community more often so there is a greater level of trust and comfort. I believe we are evolving quickly, and I am happy to see how far this patient-centered attitude has come since I started my educational path within medicine."
