Warrior Ambassador

Mariam Abdelmesih

“I chose Wayne State University School of Medicine because of its dedication to community service and clinical excellence. Being a part of the Warrior M.D. community means having endless opportunities to give back to the community, whether it be involvement in student-run free clinics, mentorship and health policy and advocacy. There are also many opportunities to get involved in student organizations and research very early on in medical school, which is something that I value highly as a medical student.”
