  Knowing that Rowan as a place has been able to develop at such a fast rate; I am intrigued in finding out the developmental changes that are to be brought within Rowan within the next few decades. As a pre-medical student myself, I intent on staying within this strong community. In order to ensure that I am getting the most out of my education, as well as, attempting to make the greatest impact on Medicine at Rowan in the upcoming and near future. Medicine as a whole has evolved; unlike the 1900s performing procedures within a patient's house is no longer existent instead the patient can now drive five minutes away to an urgent care. And within a total of thirty minutes, the patient will be sent home with medicine and a proper diagnosis. This advancement not only shows you the level of care that is available but the quality of care given to each specific person in a timely manner.
