Our Mission
Why We Do It?
In response to the critical need for veteran physicians' engagement in education, we established the Future Physicians of America program.
Our mission is twofold: to combat the decline in the physician population and foster the growth of future healthcare leaders. Through a mentorship program, seasoned physicians actively support and encourage medical students, playing a pivotal role in their development.
Additionally, PWT provides scholarships to further empower the next generation of physicians. Our non-profit programs offer innovative and measurable approaches to education, contributing to a sustainable healthcare system. Join us in shaping a healthier future for our communities.

PWT MEDICAL STUDENT MENTORSHIP AND SCHOLARSHIPS
Physicians Working Together is dedicated to connecting, collaborating, and caring for physicians, medical students and the communities that we serve. As medical forerunners, we embrace the inherent responsibility to help future physicians become successful on their journey to the finish line.
Physicians Working Together provides helpful medical resources, physician advocacy, medical student mentoring, and scholarships. It’s no secret that medical school is expensive, and the rates continue to climb. Beyond the scope of tuition costs, medical students are faced with a list of additional financial obligations that include lab costs, textbooks, testing fees, and the list goes on.
PWT is dedicated to empowering medical students by keeping them on track for success. The non-profit organization features a Medical Student Mentorship Program that educates and inspires future healthcare professionals with the knowledge, skills and abilities that they will need to overcome today’s challenges and embrace tomorrow’s trends.
The Physicians Working Together Medical Student Scholarship Fund helps recipients relieve a portion of medical students' financial burdens. We feature an annual contest during National Physicians Week that provides a financial stipend to selected medical students each year.
With an effort to combat burnout, the online competition helps medical students take a moment away from the pressures of their coursework during the celebratory week. Participants are encouraged to submit a short video that displays their artistic talents and abilities.
The entries are received up to and during National Physicians Week (March 25-31) and the winners are announced in April.
