As a first-generation student, this has been an amazing opportunity that has curated memories I will never forget! Shadowing doctors from different branches has broadened my perspectives of the healthcare field internationally. I have made new connections with some amazing and kind doctors at IRCCS Istituti Fisioterapici Ospitalieri. Through this opportunity, I’ve gained an even deeper understanding of how open-mindedness plays an important role when going abroad and celebrating other cultures that truly bring out the richness of my experiences in Italy.
