My Mission
My name is Michal Grucki, I am an international student at Maumee Valley Country Day School and I am currently a senior. Maumee Valley allows students to participate in an independent study experience for three weeks of the school year to gain experience in a professional field of interest. I am interested in studying the medical field, especially the field of oncology. I have always wondered, what it is like working in oncology day-to-day as a physician. During this intensive I am gaining a better understanding of how oncologists help patients along with the emotional struggles they face. An opportunity like this helps me determine if oncology is a field I'd like to pursue in college. Moreover, gave me a closer look at how work in a clinic looks like.
I received an opportunity to spend time with Dr. Al- Nsour at clinic and experience what is it like to be an oncologist.
My next independent study was connected with medical field as well, however it was approached from a different angle. During Health intensive I am going to explore topic of vitamins and it's importance in our life.
During my third independent study I will be working at a health services facility in Medford, Oregon, where I will be shadowing various professionals and gaining knowledge and better understanding of this specific facility. My goal for that independent study is to create a connection between rehabilitation and the general well-being of elderly people. Access how trauma-related mental health issues affect people physically and how this issue can be solved. Gain knowledge about working in a medical facility to determine my suitability for working in rehabilitation.
