Careers in Medicine
Friday, April 23 at 1:00 p.m.
A headache; broken bone; the flu; severe congestion; a new patient; the grandchild of a patient you treated more than twenty years ago – all in a day’s work for the physician who practices family medicine. Dr. Mary Lou Zwiesler has treated a couple of generations of patients and looks forward to the challenges of each new day. Sometime the treatment is not physical but consoling a patient after sharing bad news with a family member. No two days are alike in family medicine and that is the challenge for Dr. Zwiesler. She actually started medical school later in life after her two children were well along in school. Dr. Zwiesler shares a unique insight as to never giving up on your dreams even if you start pursuing them later than normal. She will also give her perceptions on the many support people (nurses, bookkeepers, receptionists, and etc.) who help to run a successful practice.

After graduation, Shawn plans to continue her studies in graduate school and study directing. Her ultimate goal is to own a theater company.
