Current and former Gap Year Interns cite their experience at Grace as formative in the pursuit of a career in healthcare:

“This internship has cemented for me that becoming a physician is the path for me. Specifically, scribing has helped me learn more about medicine than I learned in 4 years of undergrad. When things get tough in Med school and beyond, I will look back on my time with Grace, including the team and patients.” Kiara, medical school student

 “Everyone is constantly willing to teach. I came with no prior medical scribing experience and was embraced and graciously taught each step. The providers go above and beyond daily to explain diagnoses and treatment plans. More importantly, the servant-hearted individuals at Grace became a part of my support team during the medical school application process.” Abby, medical school student

“Grace is an amazing experience. Grace prepared me for taking care of people from different cultural backgrounds with limited access to medical care. It made me a better human and a better doctor.”        Ryan, MD, Nephrologist

 “I felt Grace showed me how to see the patient as a whole. The staff at Grace was patient and diligent to further my learning. Grace taught me how to educate and empower patients.” Alice, Physician Assistant
