Had a wonderful time chatting with the new #UME students at UCalgaryMedicine last week. It’s always inspiring to hear about the visions new students have for the future of medicine.

The Black Physicians Association of Alberta (BPAA) mentorship program was actually inspired by work done by @CalgaryBMSA members. We seek to empower current students; they’re the living embodiment of our promising future. Grateful to connect with incoming med students last week.
