"I’m thankful for the USTMAAA… As medical interns, part of our training involves projecting our efforts towards socio-environmental transformation with the goal of improving life for the individual, family, and community at large. This has opened my eyes to the fact that we have many avenues to help others, and we need to utilize them."
