Making the Grade

Recent medical and nursing school graduates reflect on their education, their new careers, and their future aspirationsThe Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine graduated its charter class in May, bestowing MD degrees on 50 newly minted medical professionals. Meanwhile, other valley medical education institutions, from Roseman University to the CSN School of Nursing, graduated new classes as well. We spoke to a handful of recent graduates about their sometimes-winding paths in pursuit of healthcare careers, the highs and lows of their academic experience, and their advice to future nursing and medical students.Their stories are unique, and yet they share some interesting commonalities, the most striking of which is how life often took them on several detours before they finally found their career groove. These interviews have been edited for length and clarity.Support comes from Emmanuel Vergara, PharmDDoctorate in Pharmacy, Roseman UniversityGraduated May 2021The seed of Emmanuel Vergara’s dream to be a pharmacist was planted at Rancho High School, where he took a pharmacy elective in the school’s medical magnet program. The Las Vegas native grew up acting as a Spanish-English translator for his immigrant parents and knew the value of this skill in situations like paying bills — and talking to healthcare providers.I had to get my prerequisites for Roseman at UNLV, and I applied for a pharmacy technician job at CVS. That’s when I realized it’s something I really enjoyed. Perhaps the moment that made me realize this is my calling was an instance where the pharmacist was counseling a Spanish-speaking father on how to give his daughter antibiotics. Two to three bottles was supposed to last her 10 days. The pharmacist asked him if he understood. I saw that he kind of didn’t, so I offered to the pharmacist, “Is it okay if I help you translate?” She said, “Sure, we can always use an extra helping hand.” So, I asked him before translating if he understood what the pharmacist meant. He said, “Yeah, I give my daughter a bottle a day, right?” And I’m like, “No, no, no.” And I explained the correct directions to him with the pharmacist’s help.Roseman’s accelerated pharmacy program is intense — cramming what normally takes four years into three — but Vergara said the school balances this with a social, supportive environment.What helped us get through it is that they also assigned us to teams. Your exam is broken up into two parts: the first part is individual; the second part you take as a team. So, one of the cornerstones is collaborative effort. In healthcare, you’re gonna be working with people constantly. You’re gonna be working with nurses, you’re going to be communicating with doctors’ offices. In my very first year, my team that I was assigned with was my support group. They were my closest friends. I still get in touch with them till this day. We go everywhere with each other.The pandemic robbed Vergara of much more than just the in-person aspect of his education. Last year, he did a clinical rotation in a hospital ICU.In the ICU, we had so many COVID patients, so it was a scary environment. However, I’m mostly in community pharmacy, which is what people typically know, but you also have pharmacies in the hospital, and I thought that would be a unique perspective to help me. And I did learn a lot there. A few months after my rotation, my grandfather had to be admitted to the ICU at a different hospital with COVID. One of my cousins was the point of contact between the family and the hospital. There was a miscommunication, and I said, you know what, I’m going to be the point of contact to help translate the information from the hospital to my family. And I asked the hospital, “What are my grandfather’s ventilation settings? What medications is he taking? What side effects is he having?” And I was able to relay that information to my family and answer any questions they had. I was very fortunate to have had the rotation at the ICU, so I could help with my grandfather. He was our No. 1 supporter. Unfortunately, he passed three months before my graduation. He went to my high school and college graduation and was just short of seeing me be the first person in our family to earn a doctorate degree.Vergara is looking forward to a future of building relationships with his patients.I can’t wait to be that trusted pharmacist in the community, wherever I’m at. I can’t wait to get to know my team. During my experiences as a technician, my pharmacy manager at the time, she would always talk to the patients one-on-one, help them with their personal issues. And I really admire that. To do that with my Spanish-speaking patients — I just can’t wait, so I can help the health of my community as a whole. HK Faun Botor, MDDoctor of Medicine, Kirk Kerkorian School of MedicineGraduated May 2021From an early age, Faun Botor knew she wanted to work in healthcare — but she didn’t know exactly what she wanted to do. It took her some time to devise a career path that could account for her interest in maternal health, addiction issues, and mental wellness in the disability community. The answer: psychiatry. She began her residency at UMC and the Rawson-Neal Psychiatric Hospital in July.I figured out I wanted to be a doctor when I was in my early teen years. My mom was in the hospital due to complications from alcoholism. And I loved being in the hospital! I loved being around the nurses and listening to the doctors talk, even the smell of the hospital and the hospital food, which sounds weird, because everyone hates it. I just loved it. So I knew I wanted to be a doctor. I worked toward that in high school, graduating valedictorian, things like that. And then once I got to college, I kind of fell off that path.But then later on, I became an ultrasound tech. I did ultrasound for six years. I did high-risk pregnancies and fetal echoes. And then my first son, in 2014, he had to have surgery at 18 months old. I remember just being so afraid as a parent — my first kid going in for his first surgery, so nervous even though it was a small procedure. His surgeon came and sat down on the gurney with us and explained everything, and made me feel so calm and so confident in her abilities to take care of my son, that I was like, “That’s what I want to do.” Not that I want to be a surgeon, but I want to be there for my patients and be able to do what she did for me for others. That reignited my desire to go to medical school.It wasn’t until she was doing clinical rotations as a student that she realized that psychiatry was her calling.Originally, I wanted to go into obstetrics; just because of my background in ultrasound, I have a lot of knowledge in OB. Then I did my first rotation in OB, and I hated it. You only got to see patients for a few minutes. Even with laboring patients, you were only in and out of the room really quickly. There wasn’t that good connection that I wanted, there wasn’t that time to spend with them that I wanted. So when I went searching for a specialty that would give that to me, I found that in psychiatry. You spend a lot of time with your patients. I mean, it’s all talking, really. And I really enjoyed that.I feel like it’s kind of been a long time coming. So, both my parents died from addiction. My oldest son has autism. So I’ve been part of the disability world and the neuro/psych world for a while, and just things like that, that kind of drew me later on to psychiatry.But even her brief tenure working in OB influenced her specific psychiatric focus.It’s early in my career, but I’m thinking about doing a combination of maternal mental health — coming from that OB world, I do still enjoy those patients. We have a lot of addiction issues and things like that in that population. I’m also interested in child and adolescent psychiatry. So I want to be able to help the autism community, even if it’s just getting kids diagnosed and into services earlier, because we have a really long waitlist for kids to just even see a physician that can diagnose them.Her advic
