From Christina G., RN, RMT, Kingston, Ontario

My father is a psychiatrist and my mother, a clinical psychologist. Both entered their fields when I was one year old. They were devoted to their patients. It was rather intense growing up as our lives revolved around their patients, and in this field typically, patients’ crises. The most important message I took away from the intersection of my childhood and their careers was the value of caring for others in need.

From Feli L., Pharmacist, Fort Myers

Way back in my high school, college prep days, I was fascinated by the human body and was bound and determined to understand every facet of its form and function. To me, what better way to gain this knowledge than to study medicine and apply this knowledge towards helping people?

Pretty altruistic.
