Medicine: Beyond the Science

Plan A didn't work out? Good...there are 25 more letters in the alphabet to work through. When facing rejection it is easy for us to freeze and give up. I speak today with Dr. Yusuf Rahman, who received the news that he did not match for a residency program. While devastating to hear, he persevered, kept a positive mental attitude, and found success. We discuss the importance of having support from family and friends, along with the ability to accept your shortcomings. Dr. Rahman's inspiring story is a reminder to us all that there are always better days ahead.
