<p>Sometimes, finding your passion does not always follow a linear path. Dr. Daniel Diaz knows this from experience firsthand. Before pursuing medicine, he thought he might become a mechanical engineer or a physical therapist. However, in this episode we learn that not succeeding is not the same thing as failing. With a lifelong interest in sports and a commitment to his community, Dr. Diaz eventually found his true calling in sports medicine. His passion and enthusiasm for this specialty is evident as he paves the road for an increase in sports medicine integration at federally qualified health centers. Through his leadership, AltaMed now has a new ACGME-accredited fellowship that will build a pipeline training more sports medicine physicians committed to helping underserved patients.</p> <p>If you are interested in learning more about AltaMed’s new Sports Medicine Fellowship, email us at <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a>.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Click <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1HV9-FNv2Yy-MUhOyC3Qq3iYu6OrQEfLU/view?usp=share_link">here </a>to view this episode's transcript.</p>
