    Passion Into Purpose - Mikal Hicks-Black, DO

    This week I'm excited to share my conversation with one of the best clinicians I've had the joy of spending time with. Dr. Mikal Hicks-Black is a Child and Adolescent Psychiatrist located in metropolitan Philadelphia. As a lead clinician, Dr. Hicks-Black covers various inpatient units within the hospital where she manages patients from diverse backgrounds with intricate trauma narratives and complex psychopathology. She genuinely feels she turned her purpose into passion, and feels blessed to work in communion with the families and children that walk her units.

    Third Year Hustle!

    Third Year Hustle!

    This week I had the opportunity to chat with some of my fellow 3rd year med students about how they're navigating the ongoing pandemic, social and political unrest and the transition into clinical year all while taking care of academic responsibilities. We also chat about what is bringing them joy, what we're hopeful for going forward and the excitement of finally being in the clinical setting. The third year hustle is real!!
