As a medical student at @vtcsom, Varun Mishra starts his day lacing up his running shoes before donning his white coat. 🏃‍♂️ With over 3,700 miles logged and three major marathons under his belt, running shapes his journey in both medicine and life.

𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝘀𝘆𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗮𝘁𝗿𝗶𝘀𝘁: 𝗙𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗿 Prepare to be captivated by one of the most uplifting stories in medical education. Meet Dr. David Hartman, a beacon of determination who lost his sight at the tender age of eight due to a congenital eye condition, seemingly crushing his dream of becoming a doctor. Yet, defying the odds, he forged a path to Temple Medical School and completed a four-year Psychiatry Residency at the University of Pennsylvania. His awe-inspiring autobiography, "White Coat, White Cane," beautifully narrates his journey of resilience. It has been a privilege to have worked alongside him. As you retire, Dr. Hartman, I stand in awe of your unwavering courage, dedication, and perseverance. roanoke.com/news/local/busin… #MedTwitter #MedEd #MedX #Psychtwitter #psychiatrist #Psychx #MentalHealthAwareness
