MD schools that value an MPH
Hello,
I am currently finishing up a 4+1 MPH program and applying to medical school during the 2023-2024 cycle. I am curious if anyone could recommend MD schools that would really value this background in public health. Also, my concentration is in PH Nutrition so I would love a school with an emphasis on Food is Medicine. Any advice is welcome-- even how to frame this grad experience in my personal statement and secondaries! Thank you in advance! (Source: Student Doctor Network)
