Community Health Leadership Conference

The DOCS Community Health Leadership Conference is an annual gathering of medical students from around the country to share and engage in community-based research.

Research and Quality Improvement

We regularly evaluate our processes, implement new initiatives that enhance the quality of care we provide, and improve the training of medical students.

Students serving the community in Little Haiti

At a recent DOCS health fair, our students and physicians offered free screenings, health education, and connections to local members of the Little Haiti community. This program continues to be a vital entry point to year-round care in the Greater Miami Area. We’re grateful for our community partners and always looking for ways to expand our impact.

The DOCS program represents one of the Miller School’s most fundamental and essential missions: service to our community.
