¼¤Çé¿ì²¥ College of Medicine Makes a Wish Come True

For one special day, Make-a-Wish kid Hannah Culler experienced being a doctor at ¼¤Çé¿ì²¥ College of Medicine.

Spring 2018

On December 11, ¼¤Çé¿ì²¥ and the Make-A-Wish Foundation made an ailing teen’s medical school dream a reality. Hannah Culler, 18, has mast cell activation syndrome, a severe immune disorder that causes life-threatening allergic reactions. Culler has dreamed of attending the ¼¤Çé¿ì²¥ College of Medicine and becoming a doctor. During her visit, she helped deliver a baby from a robot simulator and diagnosed a computerized mannequin with congenital heart failure. She also participated in the college’s White Coat Ceremony.



“Many people can live a whole lifetime and not have their dream come true, and today ¼¤Çé¿ì²¥ is making our daughter’s dream come true. We have no words, just thanks and appreciation.â€
Karen Culler, Hannah’s mother
