Derek Fairbanks

Derek is currently a 1st year medical student at Texas Tech and loving it! He thinks that working at Voyage Clinics during his gap year was the perfect thing as he prepared for medical school. He gained invaluable experience working directly with patients and witnessing what patient centered care should look like. He also learned about what it takes to run a medical practice behind the scenes and gained valuable skills for his future career not taught in medical school. Derek’s time at Voyage Clinics made for an easy transition into medical school and even helped him get into an accelerated program to finish sooner and with less debt. He recommends Voyage Clinics to anyone seeking an experience above and beyond that of a typical medical assistant to better prepare for a career in medicine.
