Interested in clinical research opportunities and working with underserved populations in a clinical setting? Then you should check out iCareX!
Founded by Dr. Tony Hung, MD, MBA, iCareX is an organization founded with the belief of challenging the status quo to solve healthcare disparity by cultivating thinkers, building leaders, and thinking innovatively. Our mission is to improve the quality of healthcare for underserved populations in various clinics in the Greater Los Angeles area. Members will be taught by a team of physicians to be trained as health educators, advocates, and coaches for patients.
iCareX isn’t just an organization, it’s a family. We’ve created a community of members that genuinely care for and support each other. We have an extensive network of alumni, medical students, and even many doctors who are more than willing to provide advice and mentorship to iCareX members.
Additional benefits include:
-Direct clinical experience with doctors and patients.
-Not just shadowing physicians, but also working with them to improve the care of patients.
-Medical and healthcare education and training in our “Mini Medical School” series.
-Improved public speaking, global awareness, and cultural competency by working with underserved populations.
-Clinical volunteer hours, research opportunities, and leadership opportunities.
-Letters of recommendations.
-Network of alumni and doctors for advice and mentorship.
