"the whole system is uninformed and unprepared for students with disabilities"
- Dr. Meeks
#DACMed2025
#medsky
talking about how students get counseled out of "difficult" specialties when they have a known disability is so disheartening

Dr. Meeks speaking on accommodations for board exams. I remember everyone telling me to either plan FAR ahead and be ready to be rejected or just not try

clerkship directors are definitely not prepared to work with students with disabilities! that's why my surgical teaching elective focused on this
#DACMed2025
#medsky
the accommodation process is definitely poorly understood. thankfully UW has decent procedures in place
#DACMed2025
#medsky
i have definitely heard and seen others being told medicine isn't for them because of disability
