Letter from a PGY-1 ✉️ 

Dear Future Doctors,

I remember last year during this time, when I was dreading match week. From as long as I could recall there were very few moments that would have as much of an impact on my life as finding out if and where I was going to match in pursuing my dream to be a physician. In this pivotal moment for your transition from medical students to doctors, I am compelled to reflect on the journey that brought me, and now you, to this juncture. It is a time rife with anticipation, hope, and, admittedly, a fair share of nerves. Yet, it is also a moment where I urge you to take stock of the incredible path you’ve traversed, the sacrifices that you have made and for those you have gone above and beyond almost daily in pursuit of a calling that is nothing short of noble.

To my fellow future physicians, as we embark on this next stage of our journey, I urge you all to always take the opportunity to ask for help. Your program director, senior, and co-residents from the day you match to the rest of your career are special connections who all have been in your shoes. For those who are preparing for next year’s match - the altruism of our fellow physicians cannot be understated. Within Andwise and beyond, I have personally seen many give their time for they believe those they are helping to be vital additions to the medical profession. Know that there will always be someone out there who will believe in your path and help you. 

Regardless of your match outcome - Andwise is here to help you, because we as a team, and our broader community believe that you deserve to be a successful physician.

Here's to the future, to the challenges and triumphs that await, and to the incredible journey of medicine we are privileged to continue. Together, we are stepping into a bright future, one patient, one moment, one breakthrough at a time.

With heartfelt congratulations and best wishes for Match Day! 

Sincerely,

Dhruvil Ashishkumar Patel, MD
