“Every one of our faculty members here is genuinely invested in every single student. They want you to be successful. They want you to be a good doctor."
Andy Shang, OMSII
“Every interaction I've had, the staff and faculty here have been interested in who you are, not all the superficial and extraneous points and facts and figures. They care about you as a person, not a number."

“As hard as this year has been, I am grateful that I am at PNWU, where I not only have an opportunity to become a physician, but have found a community that believes in me every step of the way."
