Why I Teach Medical Students
Some members know that during the school year I'm not in the clinic on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. You can find me teaching at Sam Houston State University College of Osteopathic Medicine in Conroe. I've played a part in teaching our next generation of osteopathic physicians for the past four years. In fact, I taught full-time as an Assistant Professor my first two years out of residency. I love teaching and leaving academics was a hard decision, but I'm glad I still get the opportunity to help students learn about osteopathic manipulative medicine. Taking care of patients in my own clinic and teaching are what keeps me passionate about practicing medicine. Check out my video below

However, constrained by heavy teaching duties and limited control over patient demographics, she turned her sights toward DPC."
