Introduction
Dr. Louie Wang is a trailblazer—a first-generation college graduate and physician driven by a passion for mentorship. His journey began when he left New York and ventured alone to San Diego in 2013 to pursue his undergraduate studies at UC San Diego. There, he majored in Biology and graduated with both a bachelor's and master's degree, with a minor in Education. Throughout his academic time at UCSD, Dr. Wang was deeply involved in multiple student organizations and held leadership roles in student government bodies. During his master's program, he served as a Instructional Assistant for upper-division biology classes and provided tutoring services to fellow students, both independently and through a major company.
Dr. Wang received acceptance offers from multiple medical schools but ultimately chose to attend UCLA-David Geffen School of Medicine with a prestigious full-ride scholarship. At UCLA, he played an active role in the admissions process, serving as a student interviewer, interview day coordinator (pre-COVID), and Zoom interview social facilitator (during/post-COVID). During the first two years in medical school, Dr. Wang worked as a medical school consultant with a major company. In his final year of medical school, he represented the student body on the admissions committee. In addition to his involvement in admissions administration, Dr. Wang founded IMMIMEDI, a national online 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to providing free social resources to immigrant families with students aspiring to become physicians in the USA. He also mentored closely with several UCLA undergraduate pre-med organizations, including EMRA, AMSA, APAMSA, and the Pre-Med Community @ UCLA.
Currently, Dr. Wang is a full-time emergency medicine resident at UC San Diego, where he continues to dedicate his time to mentoring pre-medical students via premed organization speaking events and in contact with UCSD Career Center. With his wealth of knowledge and commitment to service, he serves as a valuable resource and individual consultant, guiding aspiring physicians along their own paths to success.
In medical ethics, justice dictates that all patients should receive fair and equitable treatment. This principle extends to the distribution of health resources, ensuring that everyone has access to the care they need. Dr. Wang, having experienced financial hardships in his upbringing, understands the importance of affordability in healthcare services.
Initial Consultation
Dr. Wang recognizes the significance of proactiveness and preparedness in the journey of becoming a physician in the USA. He particularly enjoys collaborating with driven high school seniors and junior premeds, including community college students and university freshmen with a discounted price for initial consultation. During the this meeting, which typically lasts about 1-1.5 hour, he will cover the following default topics unless the interested student proposes alternative plans such as personal statement walkthrough/brainstorming, Q&A, etc. Please note that Dr. Wang cannot prepare students for interviews in the initial consultation and will not offer any medical advice or prescribe any medications. During the meeting, Dr. Wang will create a Google document with discussed and covered topics that will be directly shared with the student.
- Student background and aspiration
- Why Medicine
- What makes a good pre-med student
- What are medical school admission committee looking for when it comes to extracurricular activity
- Role of personal statement, secondary applications, and letter of recommendations
- Premed timeline establishment with activities, course, MCAT, application.
- Myth and truth clarifications
- How to think like a doctor / Medicine Practicing Mentality
As a physician, Dr. Wang values the application of justice and strives to ensure fairness in his practice. He acknowledges that consultations can be costly and may not always be necessary. Therefore, he advises students accordingly, suggesting that long-term consultation may not be suitable for everyone. At the end of the initial consultation meeting, Dr. Wang will give his recommendation for long-term consultation only if indicated and mutually agreed. Dr. Wang prioritizes his limited off-work time for students whom he believes can truly benefit from a long-term consultation relationship, aligning with his commitment to justice in healthcare.
Long-term Consultation
If Dr. Wang recommends, and the student is interested in, a long-term consultation relationship with the agreeable pricing, a series of strategically planned meeting will be scheduled and a student profile will be created to be share via Google-Drive. Depending on the discussed timeline, Dr. Wang will work directly with the student to establish an agreeable meeting frequency and number of sessions. In a long-term consultation, the following services are offered pending on the proposed timeline:
Developing Application Theme and Narrative: Together, we'll brainstorm and refine a compelling theme and narrative that showcases your unique qualities and experiences, demonstrating how they align with your goals in medicine.
Writing and Refining Your Personal Statement: I'll help you craft a personal statement that stands out from the crowd, avoiding cliches and showcasing your genuine passion for medicine through a captivating narrative.
Choosing Where to Apply: Based on your academic stats, preferences, and goals, I'll provide personalized recommendations for a well-balanced list of safety, target, and reach schools to maximize your admissions odds.
Discussing Extracurriculars: I'll assist you in effectively highlighting your extracurricular activities in the Work/Activities section, emphasizing your key achievements and the impact they've had on your personal and professional growth. I will also help you deciding and applying to different activities if needed.
Crafting Unique Secondary Essays: I'll work with you to brainstorm creative responses to secondary essay prompts, ensuring that each essay reflects your individuality while adhering to word limits.
Sticking to an Admissions Timeline: I'll provide guidance and support to help you stay on track with your application timeline, ensuring that you submit your materials in a timely manner to take advantage of rolling admissions.
Aceing Admissions Interviews: Through mock interviews and role-playing exercises, I'll help you prepare for admissions interviews, equipping you with the confidence and skills to tackle even the most challenging questions.
Providing Support and Answering Questions: I'll be available to address any questions or concerns you may have throughout the application process, offering support and guidance to alleviate stress and uncertainty.
If the student is interested in a relatively short-term consultation such as solely interested in interview preparing, personal statement development, or medical school choices, the student can still benefits from the long-term consultation pricing without any significant penalties.
