Joy of Clinical Medicine
Dr. Louis Kuchnir MIT Alum & Prehealth Advisor

No limit but advance sign up required (see contact below)
Single session event

Back when doctors were among the wealthiest Americans, they could have retired early, but instead they tended to work until their own health failed. Lately, clinical medicine is cast as an unrewarding profession. Observers point to how "jackpot justice" is causing a malpractice crisis while cost-savings programs developed by managed care bureaucracies are blamed for destabilizing the doctor-patient relationship.

Dr. Louis Kuchnir will inspire those of you interested in becoming clinicians by explaining how the rewards of medical practice are so enormous that they outweigh the indignities that dominate the headlines.
