I liked so many things about the conference but the main thing that I liked was the positive energy and strong voice from the family medicine leaders. It inspired me and showed me that we really can make difference. I also learned that I can tailor my practice to my strengths and interests, and that I can become proficient in procedures and impatient work. It definitely gave me a peace and excitement (about choosing family medicine). I knew I was making the right decision.

I was fairly undecided about what specialty I wanted to pursue, although FM was at the top of my list, but the NC solidified my decision to pursue FM. [My perception changed] because I heard from and spoke to people who practice so differently.
