Welcome to our blog! The Urban Health Scholars are a group of medical students at the Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth who are committed to working in urban regions with medically underserved communities. In addition to holding journal article discussions and working in urban areas in Vermont and New Hampshire, our group also has the opportunity to travel to other urban locations to learn as much as possible about the unique features of practicing in an urban environment. We have been lucky enough to get to travel to New York, Boston, Philadelphia, and Miami in recent years (with Chicago on the way!) and subsequently try our best to share all that we have learned with our classmates and other members of the Geisel community. In the blog posts that follow, we hope you will get a taste of what our most recent experience in NYC was like. We would like to give a huge THANK YOU to everyone that made this trip possible, including the Office of Multicultural Affairs at Geisel, our Geisel alums in the city, and all of the wonderful contacts that welcomed us into each of their sites. Thank you, and we hope you enjoy the blog!
