Personal Statement:
I enrolled in fmSTAT because I knew I wanted to pursue family medicine, and VCU’s program offered the perfect environment to begin that journey. I was incredibly drawn to the mentorship opportunities, strong sense of community, and deep exposure to the pillars of the specialty—all of which will help me develop into the holistic family physician I envision.
