It was an awesome experience and Stavros was a really big help during the whole internship. I learned so much in a very short time and checked off boxes for lots of pre-med requirments!

This experience has been something I’ll never forget, both in terms of the memories I made with my group and the things I experienced at the hospital while shadowing. I am so grateful to have had this experience. I was able to experience not only the social scene in Larissa and explore the country in my free time, but also got structured group activities as well as hospital shadowing. I felt supported throughout the program and this program is something I wish I’d known about sooner.

This experience was one I will never forget. You learn so much in all aspects of the program. You get an accurate view of the medical field, and you become immersed in the culture surrounding you. I made so many new friends while I was there and we went on plenty of adventures. I would easily do this again. If you're even thinking about doing this, then go ahead. You won't find this experience anywhere else. This gave me a better understanding of what I want to do in the medical field.

I never imagine that I would fall in love with Larissa, Greece. As my first trek outside of the United States, I though this experience would be impactful, but I didn't expect it to be life-changing.
