In this episode we hear from Dr. Shani Scott, an Internal Medicine Physician and Assistant Program Director in New York City. We were classmates together at Howard University College of Medicine. After completing residency, Dr. Scott chose to practice in New York so that she could directly combat healthcare disparities in the Bronx. In this episode, she talks about her daily role as an academic Internist, how she manages her private clinic patients and supervises residents with their patient panels. Dr. Scott also sheds some light on her administrative responsibilities.
This residency interview season has been disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Scott shares her thoughts on the socially distanced interview process. She also talks about the things she looks for in potential residents. We wrap up our discussion by discussing her research into structurally competent healthcare.
Are you interested in becoming an Internal Medicine Physician? Are you interested in learning about healthcare disparities and structurally competent healthcare? Are you applying to residency this year and looking for tips on navigating virtual interviews? If so, this episode is for you.
