Warrior Ambassador

Daphne Pate

“I chose Wayne State University School of Medicine because it was the perfect fit for me. I was raised in Wayne County, and I have so much love for this area. I was drawn to the early clinical experience available, giving me the opportunity to give back to my community as soon as year one started. I also was drawn to the number of organizations and clubs to be a part of. I love to meet people and be involved, so I knew this was something that was important to me. All the physicians I have gone to in my life, such as my pediatrician and primary care physician, have graduated from Wayne State. They have been great role models for me in this process and have great things to say about Wayne in regards to their experience/preparation for the field. ”
