“Getting to know my Buddy, John, has been one of the best parts of my whole year. As I get to spend more time with John, I can already see how our friendship has had a positive impact on my experience in medical school and most likely on my entire career as a physician. I feel that I'm developing a much greater understanding of some of the challenges to health and well-being that are often faced by people with IDD, and why it's so important for future physicians to appreciate this in the context of their own practice.”
