Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Apply Medical School: Medical schools look for individuals who have stories to tell. The story of their lives sometimes; the stories of how they persevered in the journey through early life and college. They want well rounded men and women who have passion and compassion and humanity.
