Arshdeep吉尔

I decided to join the EPPS program because I was eager to gain firsthand insight into the daily life of a physician. With no doctors in my immediate or extended family, this program presented a perfect opportunity for me to connect with a physician. 

Throughout my shadowing experience, I gained an understanding of the diverse roles doctors undertake. I had completely underestimated the extensive behind-the-scenes work that doctors do to keep their operations running smoothly. 

This experience confirmed that becoming a physician is the right career path for me. 

我非常感谢EPPS项目 and everyone involved for making this experience possible. It was truly invaluable and has significantly contributed to my growth as a student, strengthening my determination to pursue a career in medicine.
