Alyssa Yeh
Molecular, Cell and Developmental Biology '23 Currently: 2nd year at Tufts SOM in Boston Favorite APA memory: APA health fairs were some of my favorite experiences from UCLA! The sense of community that you feel when working with your peers, medical students, and the AAPI population is incomparable.

Physiological Science '22 Currently: Loma Linda School of Medicine MS3 Favorite APA memory: Client navigation was one of my first exposures to patient care and taught me some of my most valuable lessons.

Amy Junus
Psychobiology '19 Currently: Cardiology DNP in Maryland; New Mom of 2 Favorite APA memory: There are so many different roles in healthcare, and it's really important to take the time to figure out which one you want! Everyone works together for the general goal of providing care for people, but how each person/role does it can be more different than you think. Also, it's always worth taking the extra step to care for someone who may feel isolated from the health-care system because of a myriad of different cultural, socio-economic reasons! It can make a world of a difference in a person's overall health! |
