Determined to be a Doctor Someday

Determined to be a Doctor Someday Determined to be a Doctor Someday (D.D.S.) is a pathway program that exposes youth to healthcare.

Coming from very humble beginnings in North Memphis, Dr. Rosenthal’s quest to become a dentist was never easy, but she made it. Dentistry has not only allowed her to achieve her dreams, but it has also given her a chance to be a blessing to her family and the community! This could not have been possible without healthcare providers, who not only provided care but served as mentors, along the way. Dr. Rosenthal’s love of helping and sharing knowledge with others has led her to create this initiative. It was designed so that young people, who come from similar backgrounds, can not only obtain mentors but receive the necessary resources to obtain their goals of becoming healthcare professionals. It is desired that upon completion of these programs they will return to their communities and help close the access disparity.
