Praveen Pedapudi

Working as a respiratory therapist gave me a new excitement I never found in other jobs. I realized I wanted to be involved in every aspect of patient care—not just one small part. The MSMS program showed me I could do it, and it gave me the confidence to get into PHSU's MD program and pursue my dream of becoming a physician.

Samantha Kos

As an MSMS student, you have access to an analytics tool that allows you to see a projection of your performance on the USMLE Step 1 and updates in real time after every exam. I like to think of the MSMS program as a practice run of medical school to assess your capabilities as a future MD student. I graduated top of my class, and now, I confidently and successfully use the skills from the MSMS program as a PHSU MD student.
