Welcome back for another episode of #MDTribe ! I am excited to share this interview with Dr. Grotheer, MD, MPH graduate from the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine. Born in West Africa in the country of Liberia, Dr. Grotheer was brought to the US by her father. She grew up in Colorado and attended college at CU Boulder. Dr. Grotheer was a non-traditional applicant who decided she wanted to be a physician after graduating from college. She shares her experience applying to medical school after completing a post-bacc for career changers to complete her pre-reqs and take MCAT! She also shares her experience applying to residency and how she succeeded despite not performing her best on her STEP Board Exam. She emphasizes how she was initially discouraged but quickly realized that there was more value in her experience that her scores could not undermine and how residency programs appreciated this! After interviewing across the US, she shares how she landed back in South Florida for her first year of residency and what her day in the life of a PM&R resident looks like. We also talk about how she founded The Shop Docs as a medical student and how you can start a chapter at your own university! This wonderful woman is such an inspiration to me and I hope this interview gives you a glimpse of how this physician is impacting so many lives! Thank you for tuning in for this week's episode!!!
