The countdown is on! T-minus three days until #AAFPNC 🤩 I’m so excited to meet my future colleagues and to network with different residency programs I’m interested in!

Running into old pre-med friends from my UCF days at #AAFPNC was SO special! I can't believe these Knights are going to be family doctors or already are family docs (s/o to Dr. Vin Thomas)!!!

That’s a wrap for 2023 #AAFPNC! Meeting so many docs and students passionate about primary care has me so excited to be part of the #FMRevolution FIU Medicine

Our medical students attending the #AAFP annual conference in Kansas City!

DON’T worry if you’re a solo traveler! Even if you come to National Conference without anyone from your school, you won’t be alone. I ran into folks I knew from here on Twitter, a friend from high school who’s also applying this year, and a family friend who is a resident! (2/5)

Great job by our medical students volunteering at the #InternationalCoastalCleanup at Vizcaya, where they met Miami-Dade Daniella Levine Cava. 🌏💙 #fiumed #ICCday

“ When I left my parents, I had never felt so guilty, that they had to be confined to this home where neither could get a break, and nobody could help them —while I got to feel relief.” Thank you to this sib for articulating this unique experience. ncsautism.org/blog//the-last…
