What does Aretha Delight Davis expect to be doing in ten years with a medical degree, a law degree and a degree in public policy?

“I have so many plans and dreams, but the most important one is that I want to serve people, primarily as a physician-advocate for the poor. I would hope to see pediatric patients in an underserved urban environment part-time, and use the rest of my time to address the health care issues that plague the poor people in this country.”

It’s a huge order. But the nightmare of access to health care haunts her. “It’s unconscionable that there are 45 million uninsured people in this country, and our fragmented system is certainly not providing the necessary level of quality, safety and cost efficiency to those who need it and deserve it.”
