We are three medical students who just want to share our journey through medicine talking about various topics related to and unrelated to the journey. Hopefully we can inspire and share our passion for medicine through this podcast to whoever decides to stay and listen. There will be occasions when we talk about our awesome hobbies that we CAN STILL DO throughout medical school.
