Farah Rahman is a fourth-year medical student and a Las Vegas native who has traversed nearly every corner of the United States, from the Bronx and New Haven to Miami and San Diego. Entering medical school at Stritch with a background in public health and health policy, Farah obtained her MPH from the Yale School of Public Health. She is driven by a natural inclination to alleviate health disparities and work within a human centered framework to improve patient outcomes. Her natural tenacity, sociability, and drive to bring more women of color in previously male dominated fields introduced her to urology as a first year med student.
During her first year of med school, Farah discovered her passion for urology, a field she found to be characterized by a harmonious blend of tradition and diversity. Notably, Farah took a year off between her third and fourth years of medical school to delve into research at the University of Miami under Dr. Ramasamy as a MARS scholar. This transformative experience significantly influenced her match process and ultimately contributed to her success in this year’s urology match.
If you are interested in applying into urology or applying for a research year, feel free to reach out to Farah with either email (frahman3@luc.edu) or her twitter (@farahrahman23).
