I am very inspired by the efforts of the medical students @ Howard University! Props!
As we all know all too personally, America’s health care system is in crisis. Millions of people lack insurance and access to vital care. But soon, medical students at Howard University will be doing their part to support those in need.
The New Freedmen’s Clinic – created and operated entirely by medical students – will open its doors to the city's under served community on June 18.
Dr. Charles Mouton is the group’s mentor, and soon-to-be chief attending physician in the weekly clinic. Mouton is professor and chair of the Department of Community and Family Medicine at Howard. He’ll oversee patient treatment plans and sign prescriptions.
“Anytime you have young folks that are full-time students and asking them to design, plan, populate a brand new undertaking like a clinic is huge,” he said.
Let's keep hope y'all. Pray for my involvement in this important project for next school year.
