Why I Want To Be A Physician Assistant
I like to think of people in the medical field as everyday heroes, I’ve always admired them, I enjoy the idea helping those in need, whether it is a major-medical procedure or a simple laugh. As I’ve gotten older I started to take in to consideration that maybe this was what I would like to do for the rest of my life just like all people I saw and I admired when I was younger. Now that I am in the 11th grade, college is soon approaching and I found myself confused as to how I plan on getting to my goal, I knew the college I wanted to attend and what profession I wanted to pursue, but how was I going to get there?

I immediately knew I wanted to join during my senior year. Both hospitals involved in the internship are very prestigious hospitals, respected and used by many in Berks County.

My hopes for this internship is to learn everyday tasks done in hospitals such as helping patients into rooms, helping with paper work, taking the temperatures of ill patients or maybe even seeing a surgery.
Learning these tasks would help me move farther heading in college so that I may live my dream sooner. While in our meeting with the hospitals in the auditorium of Reading High School I head one girl’s experience during her time In the internship, she mentioned she wanted to become a Physician Assistant like me, I was surprised to hear that she was starting her 400 hours needed to attend PA school so that she can get a head start against her class in college. She is doing this by shadowing a Physician assistant that works inside of the hospital, when hearing this it further sold me on why I wanted to endeavor onto this experience in the internship. I am a determined and responsible student who tries my best in everything I do like my classes and extracurricular activities done after school I also want to succeed in his future, I am willing to work had for my goal and I see this internship as a great opportunity to continue in the medical field and gain great knowledge that I could use in college and further on in my career as a Physician’s assistant. So, as I apply to this wonderful opportunity I ask of both hospitals to consider me as an option so that we can both help each other in beneficial ways in exchange for irreplaceable knowledge and
experience.
