Family First: Shoshana Kaufman's Amazing Story of Becoming a Doctor
Dr. Shoshana Kaufman was raised in Cambridge, Massachusetts where she attended a large urban public high school and graduated as valedictorian. She went on to earn her BA in psychobiology from Yale University. During her junior year, her father passed away in an accident, which led her to take a spiritual journey to Israel. Over the next few years, she became frum and started a family, raising five children in the process. Dr. Kaufman hosted up to 20 guests each week for Shabbos and Yontif meals in her home, and eventually decided to pursue her lifelong dream of becoming a physician.Upon completing her undergraduate degree, Dr. Kaufman took the MCATs and was encouraged by a friend to attend medical school. She will graduate in May and will begin a residency in Family Medicine at Metrohealth hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. The program is known for its intensity, as it serves primarily the poor and uninsured population in the area, including medical care for inmates in the local jails. Dr. Kaufman is enthusiastic about this opportunity and looks forward to serving her patients with compassion and care. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Become a JOWMA Member! www.jowma.org Follow us on Instagram! www.instagram.com/JOWMA_org Follow us on Twitter! www.twitter.com/JOWMA_med Follow us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/JOWMAorg/ Stay up-to-date with JOWMA news!
