“As I looked across the boxes on my screen, I saw the gleaming faces of my peers. Just as it did then, and as it has for countless of my peers since, involvement in the Student Osteopathic Medical Association (SOMA) Advocacy Day showed me the difference that medical student voices make.”

Scott Landman is an osteopathic medical student.

He shares his story and discusses his KevinMD article, “Student advocacy through the Student Osteopathic Medical Association (SOMA).”
