"Even after all these years, I look forward to waking up each morning and getting to go to work and help patients begin to heal and get better faster.

This is a chance for you to 'sell yourself' to the interviewer. Share what you think sets you apart from other physicians who may be applying. Remember, be positive. Make sure to mention some of your personal qualities, such as compassion, rather than only your hard skills.
