During my time as an intern at the Onondaga County Health
Department Bureau of Disease Control, I hope to learn more about public health.
I believe that public health is an important part of the health care system
that is often over looked by other medical specialties. I want to learn more
about the tracking and treating of diseases such as E. coli, Zika and
Tuberculosis because each disease is distinct and pose a variety of threats to
communities. I also want to learn about how public health and education work
together in order to best serve the committee dealing with the disease.
I hope
to become a medical doctor in the future and I believe that this internship
will help me have a unique perspective on health care. The knowledge from the
internship will allow me to understand the complex relationship between health
care and government which are often overlooked by healthcare professionals who
work in large hospitals. I also believe that the knowledge of the specific diseases
and how they are treated will be valuable I as learn about the many obscure
diseases that I might encounter in my career.
