What Tier II students say about MedEx

Noah Ashley

“I loved interacting with the resilient, strong children, and I loved being able to be a rock to a family on a bad day. I also loved how the physician knew each of her patients and their histories. I want to have personal relationships with my patients…this has been my favorite shadowing experience, and I found it to be exceptionally valuable.”

Chad Bates

“Each and every one of the people in Tier II was an amazing human. Each individual brought their unique story and passions to the tier and made it a diverse but inclusive environment. I made new friendships and beautiful memories with these people and I cannot be more thankful for this group of students. Thanks are also due to many others like the other amazing staff members of both MedEx and Prisma Health.”
