We want to empower fellow physicians and medical students to believe in and act on their ability to change our health care system. We believe that incorporating the experiences and perspectives of physicians and our patients will be critical to reshaping and continuously improving our health care system. We know our nation can and must create a better health care system for patients, and we are committed to working together to achieve it.
