Gold Humanism Honor Society

Our February Gold Humanism Honor Society Student of the Month is Michael Fitzpatrick, MSIII! Michael's ability to communicate allows him to consistently form meaningful connections with his patients on a daily basis. During rounds on his internal medicine rotation, Michael recognized a potential gap in a patient’s understanding of his diabetes. He later returned and sat down with easy to understand information and diagrams to discuss the patient’s diagnosis, treatment, and recommended lifestyle modifications. His passion for both teaching and providing support stretches further than the hospital, as he has played an integral role in USMLE Step 1 tutoring for MSII students. He is well known among his peers as a teacher and a leader. Michael’s caring spirit exemplifies what it means to be a GHHS SOTM.
