The Way Podcast, Episode 22 — 'Finding Our Why,' with graduating PA student Emily Goodman

Emily Goodman pod

Emily Goodman’s inspiration comes from her mother. That’s why the 23-year-old, who is now a third-year Physician Assistant Studies student from Grayson, Ky., wants to fight for others, to make sure they receive the care they deserve.

Soon she’ll be a PA serving in a rural area — and even before that, she’ll have an award to help her along the way.

Emily was the first winner of the UKPA Commitment to Rural Health Award, an honor reserved for UKPA Morehead campus students who demonstrate a commitment to rural health. It is eligible to students following the end of their didactic phase of training and includes a variable cash award given in their summer semester. It could not have gone to a better recipient.

Come with us as we re-dedicate ourselves to our dreams. We’re Finding Our Why … on this episode of The Way Podcast.
