Welcome to the fourth episode of The Med School Years podcast! In this episode, we interview Kelsey Mendell, a determined 3rd-year medical student at the New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine, offering a unique perspective on the DO path in medicine.
Kelsey discusses the key differences and surprising similarities between MD and DO training, shedding light on the often-unfair stigmatism surrounding osteopathic medicine. She also shares her experiences managing the demanding schedule of medical school while working as a fitness trainer, her unconventional journey of attending two Ivy League institutions before choosing a DO program, and her unwavering determination to pursue a career in orthopedic surgery.
