Family Medicine Personal Statement

Since my early childhood I always rolled played as a doctor, modeled by several physicians in my family. Earned the highest marks in high school has been instrumental in my acceptance to medical school. Graduating from the most well known Medical school in Iraq, the Faculty of Medicine, Anbar University, I was ranked the 6th out of 50 total graduates.
What sparked my passion for family medicine is the fact that I am able to practice the entire spectrum of medicine in one same day and with all ages. Also the fact to being able to work in hospital and outpatient settings. Most important that by my nature I am a very social person with superb interpersonal skills and I very much enjoy connecting with families at all ages.
My past clinical experience would serve as an integral building block for my family medicine training in the future. After graduation I had the opportunity o work
Most recently, my immense passion for research, especially in the field of immunology, inspired me to seize an offer to work in Dr. Dat Tran's research lab at the University of Texas Medical School in Houston, Texas. I am currently studying the role of regulatory T-cells in immune suppression and disorders, such as Graft Versus Host Disease. This research experience has greatly expanded my research knowledge and skills.
My passion, experience and knowledge make me a perfect candidate to join your Family Medicine Residency Program. My ultimate goal is to improve the practice and delivery of family practice as a leader and teacher in the clinical setting. Thank you for your time and consideration while reading my personal statement. I am looking forward to the next phase of my medical training with great excitement and strong commitment.
