Dr. Bruce Gould, UConn School of Medicine professor emeritus, explains how delivering care to underserved populations serves needs of today while preparing the next generation of health care providers to serve the needs of tomorrow.
The community is not just who comes into your waiting room or your exam room, but the community is actually who lives in the total catchment that that practice might be serving going forward, wherever you land.
