International Medical Graduate representation in Collegiate and Academic leadership in medicine has been scientifically proven to increase positive clinical outcomes, not just in culturally diverse cohorts and patient populations, but overall improvement across all demographics. Yes! IMG doctors like Dr. Ruaa Elteriefi MD FACP who are Program Directors and/or leadership positions in residency programs are quite literally changing the face of American Healthcare and bridging care gaps on a daily basis. Personally, this is one of my biggest inspirations to continue fighting the good fight of #HealthEquity through #Diversity. Several theories arise referencing cultural competency, accurate communication for patients with language challenges, and diversity of therapeutic modalities tailored with greater precision and personalization as potential avenues and strengths that are fueling these initiatives with proven results. The integration of internationally-trained physicians and scientists represents a one-of-a-kind opportunity to bridge care gaps among every single member that composes a part of our society. IMGs = More Americans have access to care = Black and Brown America's health and community needs are taken care of with objectively measured better outcomes. What are your thoughts?

Today, I was invited for an interview by my residency program to share insights on my experience thus far as a resident doctor. I was asked to “Describe a particularly memorable or impactful experience you've had during your time in the residency program?” My response: Becoming a new mom during my residency has been a life-changing experience that has not only shaped me as a person but also as a resident physician. Balancing the demands of motherhood with the rigors of residency has taught me invaluable lessons in time management, prioritization, and resilience. I have been fortunate to have a supportive program and colleagues who have encouraged me to embrace this new chapter in my life, and I am so grateful for the opportunity to model for my child the values of hard work, dedication, and compassion that define our profession." My advice to prospective applicants considering the Brown Internal Medicine residency program? 1. Be prepared to be challenged and supported in equal measure. 2. ⁠ Cultivate a growth mindset, and don't be afraid to ask questions or seek help when needed. 3. ⁠ Prioritize self-care and wellness, and lean on your colleagues and mentors for support.

Studies show that top factors contributing to job satisfaction and retention in family medicine include work-life balance, professional autonomy with adequate resources, and meaningful patient relationships. Encouraging policy-makers to prioritize these conditions and create supportive systems can help ensure family physicians feel valued and supported in their vital roles. By focusing on these key areas, we may foster a more sustainable and rewarding environment, encouraging more medical students to pursue family medicine residency.
