Mercer Health’s Medical Staff offers a summer internship and exploration program for college students who are considering applying for medical school and have completed at least two years of college by the time the programs begins. The program, which takes place annually in June, is an opportunity for students to learn from local physicians and help students make an informed decision about applying for medical school.
