Welcome to NEOMED Connect
Bringing students and health professionals together in the spirit of mentorship.
What is NEOMED Connect?
NEOMED Connect is a database exclusive to NEOMED students, offering direct access to profiles of health professionals affiliated with NEOMED.
These mentors, including alumni and other professionals, will provide informational interviews to inspire, encourage and provide ongoing support.
Mentors will help students navigate their healthcare professional journey and make informed decisions about their future career, post-graduate training, research, organizational involvement, professional development and community service, while gaining valuable insights and potential career opportunities.
Mentorship is essential to navigate the arduous road ahead

Are You a NEOMED Graduate or Affiliated Health Professional?
We’re looking for mentors who have a keen understanding of the challenges and experiences faced during professional school, and genuinely want to help students succeed by sharing their knowledge, insights and support.
Mentoring allows you to give back to your alma mater, make a positive impact on the next generation of healthcare professionals and foster a sense of fulfillment by guiding and inspiring future medical professionals.
Success happens when mentors and students connect
Guidance for the Next Generation
As a graduate from NEOMED’s first class in the College of Pharmacy, I certainly could have benefited from a service like NEOMED Connect. Providing guidance for the next generation of health professionals not only supports those students, but it helps the future of our industry. And as an alumnus, it’s always important to give back to NEOMED. The Office of Alumni Relations has created this wonderful platform for our community and I would encourage all fellow graduates to become a NEOMED Connect mentor. It’s easy and fun.
Mentorship’s Vital Role in My Medical Journey
As a second-year medical student, my mentors have been essential in shaping my path in medicine. These connections have provided me with invaluable insights, steered me through challenges, and enriched my understanding of patient care. The importance of mentorship and meaningful connections cannot be overstated– they serve as our guide on our path to success.
Nurturing NEOMED’s Future Leaders
It is a privilege to be a small part of the excellent support system in place for our NEOMED students. To me, mentoring is a vital part of the education process itself. Through formal advising, assistance with career exploration, and facilitation of clinical shadowing, we mentors work to help students successfully navigate the pathway from medical school to post-graduate training. Ultimately, the only thing more rewarding than witnessing our NEOMED students’ success is watching them return as graduates to serve as mentors themselves.
Inspiring Mentorship & Influence
Dr. Marshall was able to quickly show me her passion for pharmacy and she taught me many valuable lessons. I’m grateful to have worked with someone as helpful and giving as Dr. Marshall and hope to carry myself like she does as a practicing pharmacist in the future!
Guiding & Supporting Medical Students
It is rewarding to watch medical students grow and achieve their goals. Teaching offers a unique opportunity to improve the future of healthcare by inspiring the next generation of physicians. My goal is to enhance our students’ professional development in a positive and supportive environment.
Focusing for the Future
As someone who always feels like they could be doing something more, touching base with my mentors helped to better focus my efforts and focus on quality over quantity. I am better equipped to open doors to opportunities I did not know existed before them.
