Our team was hard at work delivering programs across all 14 counties we serve. While we’re a little behind in celebrating, we’re excited to spotlight the incredible individuals helping strengthen the healthcare workforce in Central New York.

Today, we’re featuring Gabriel Padilla, D.C., a LECOM medical student participating in our AHEC Scholars Program!

AHEC Scholars supports healthcare professional students by providing hands-on experiences in rural and underserved communities.
