“Serving the underserved and underprivileged and taking advantage of my youth to go further\u00a0into medical training and research and come back to our institution to give back and mold younger physicians are my topmost goals aside from my desire to become an Ob-gyne. I am amazed to how life begins- the first cry, the first breath, and the sacredness of life. Furthermore, with the advent of cancers such as in reproductive, I could go to Oncology to serve these patients and be an instrument to help save their lives”, <\/em>he concluded.<\/p>\n
