Before medical school, I studied theology at Harvard Divinity School and served as a chaplain-intern at Boston Children's Hospital. Those experiences shaped the way I approach medicine and patients today. In particular, I acquired a newfound appreciation for how hospital hallways are places where values intersect and where profound decisions can be shaped by individuals' religious and spiritual beliefs.
