Madison Highland Prep is proud to recognize four of its students who recently completed an internship at the HonorHealth Scottsdale Osborn Medical Center: Omar Arriaga, Julitza Arriaga, Isaac Hernandez, and Leonard Webster III. This exceptional group of students spent the summer immersed in the healthcare environment, getting hands-on experience and valuable insights into the medical field.
Through this internship, these students had the opportunity to shadow healthcare professionals in various departments, assist with patient care and administrative tasks, sterilize medical equipment, and build meaningful connections with healthcare mentors and peers. When asked about why he applied for the internship, junior, Omar Arriaga said, "I applied because my dream career is to work in the health field as a neurosurgeon. The hands-on experience of this internship gave me the chance to talk with surgeons and gastroenterologists".
By immersing themselves in a real-world medical environment, each of these students got the chance to gain valuable insights and skills that will propel them towards successful careers in healthcare. All four students said they found the experience so rewarding, that they plan to apply again next summer.
