Future Doctors Club

<p>Hello everyone, I was thinking about starting a Future Doctors Club at my school. The problem is, I would really like to start a club like this but I really don't have any idea where to start. By this I mean, I don't know what I'd discuss at meeting, what kind of activities and trips I'd plan, etc. If you were a member of one at your school, could you tell me about what kind of activities your club participated in, what trips you went on (if any), what you talked about or what topics you held discussions on, if you any guest speakers, etc. Basically, how the club was run and what the meetings were like. Also, how responsive were the members to the topics that were being taught? I would greatly appreciate it if you could help me and please feel free to give any other information that you think is important, relevant, or helpful. Or if you were going to join one, what would you like to see/do? Thank you for your time.</p>

<p>Hey! I actually started my own medical sciences club at my school 2 years ago, and there’s actually so much you can do! I created these handouts on medical fields so that everyone could have exposure to the many options out there, made powerpoints about how the medical school process works, worked out a field trip to a hospital, and had a fundraiser to help children in hospitals. if you need any more ideas, feel free to PM me!</p>

<p>My school and a few schools around me have a Future Physicians of America club. I’m not in it because I don’t want to be a doctor, so I don’t know what they do.
This might help. Here’s the club website for a school close to mine: [Monta</a> Vista Future Physicians of America](<a href=“http://mvfpa.com/]Monta”>http://mvfpa.com/)</p>
