This summer, over 100 medical students from the University of New Mexico spread out across the state, working at health care facilities in rural or underserved communities.  The program is part of the UNM School of Medicine's Practical Immersion Experience.

Second-year student Josh Romero talks about his work this summer at La Familia, a community health center in Santa Fe.

Josh discusses his experience at La Familia in greater detail in this longer version of the interview.
