The Life of a Medical Student: A Photo Essay

by Ankur Vaidya, MD

During my medical school journey at the University of Maryland, I created this photography series as an introspective representation of my experiences and to portray some of the unseen challenges and realities of medical training that, for example, are not seen on “medfluencer’s” pages -- some feelings, experiences, and stories I wish I would have known prior to embarking on this career path.

We Had a Choice

by Holly Ingram, MD, MPH

My husband and I were pregnant with a child / Then we found out something wild. / I am a carrier of SMA / And this affects me in almost no way.
