Meghan Tveit, MS3: The Healer's Journey, Episode Five | The Healing Grove Podcast

The Healing Grove Podcast

Meghan Tveit, MS 3, is back, this time to tell us all about her rotations in OB/GYN and anesthesia, but if you are not familiar with this very special frequent guest, you can read about her here...

Meghan Tveit is a third year medical student at George Washington School of Medicine in Washington, D.C. A member of the 2020 graduating class of Harvard and my eldest son's girlfriend, Meghan appeared on my doorstep when the world shut down and then spent 6 weeks "bubbling" with us during quarantine, during which time I developed a deep love for her bright, fun, compassionate, thoughtful, and curious approach to Pretty Much Everything. I know by now you are likely growing to love not only Meghan, but what she has to share about her journey on the path to becoming a doctor as well. This episode is particularly special, but you will have to listen to find out why.

In this conversation, you will witness Meghan LIGHT UP as she tells us about the life-changing decision that she has made in her journey towards becoming a doctor. If you've ever wondered how medical students sort themselves into the various and diverse specialties--or what it looks like when a lightning bolt hits them, and they suddenly know exactly where they are meant to serve, as doctors--then you will want to listen to this episode!
