About Us

MedDOCs is a student-run after school pipeline program for NYC-based high school students from underprivileged backgrounds. Our goal is to provide these students with mentorship and excite them about pursuing education/careers in science and medicine. MedDOCs is a year-long program held on Thursdays from 4:30-6pm. The school year is divided into three 8-week terms: Fall (cardiology), Winter (pulmonology), and Spring (neurology). During these terms, Mount Sinai student “”mentors”” co-teach (2 mentors/class) a class of 8-12 high school students using interactive activities, pre-made lectures, and other forms of mentorship. We believe MedDOCs is an incredible opportunity to build long term mentorship connections with our incredible students.
