“Why Miami?”

“I chose Miami University for my graduate medical education because it is home. In my four years of undergraduate studies, I had the privilege of watching the PA program and the Clinical Health Science and Wellness building come together. I knew I wanted to be part of it. Miami has always given me a strong sense of safety and community, making it the best place to continue my journey to clinical practice”.
