I am a physician Made by McGill. I applied to McGill medical school after many years of working as an engineer at Hydro Quebec. I was surprised when I was accepted! McGill taught me the importance of combining knowledge and compassion; not just talk to patients but also to listen to them. Later I specialized in nephrology because I was told by a McGill nephrologist that the smartest people in internal medicine went into nephrology! So I am also a Made by McGill nephrologist.
