QUESTION 27 OF 30

What do you think the future of preventive medicine looks like?

The interviewers want to see that you are forward-thinking and how you perceive the future of your chosen profession. As this question asks your opinion, there is no wrong answer. However, if you have no response to the question, the interviewers will determine that you haven't put much thought into the future. It is also recommended to ask the interviewers what they think preventive medicine will look like in the future. It shows you are interested in hearing what they say and value their experience.

"I think preventive medicine is the future of healthcare. I recently read an article that said preventive healthcare is the number-one priority of governments across the globe after the pandemic hit. Advancements in machine learning and sensor technology will greatly improve our ability to gather data on public health, accurately predict individual risk factors, and measure the impact of preventive medicine on the health of our patients and society at large. Preventive medicine physicians will be able to deliver improved, more personalized care, improving patient outcomes and efficiency. I am excited for what the future in preventive medicine holds."
