RUSM In The News
Being different is a unique character trait that some begrudgingly accept while others embrace and magnify the gift. Ross University School of Medicine alumna Sonal Bhatia, MD ’02, is an inspirational physician who pushes the envelope to help others who are ‘different’ and gives back to those who need a supportive voice.
With the motto — “The needs of the patient come first” — three Ross University School of Medicine grads are dedicated to uplifting patient care for residents in neighboring Central Brooklyn, New York communities with health and equity disparities as they begin their chief residencies at Brookdale University Hospital Medical Center, part of One Brooklyn Health System (OBHS).
The partnership will expand access for aspiring underrepresented medical students, creating pathways for students from minority backgrounds to fill critical physician shortages.
