Drawing on medical school experiences

As a medical student, engagement with the medical humanities allowed me to express myself, reflect on experiences, and share my inner thoughts and feelings. Drawing has played a critical role in my life both casually and professionally. It has helped me study anatomy and how the human body works, connect with others, and find a collaborative community. From scrutinising over detailed Netter anatomical drawings to creating my own graphic medicine pieces, the arts and humanities bolster my medical education to become a more well-rounded and competent physician for my future patients.
