Undergraduate Education: Graduated from the University of Kansas with a degree in chemical engineering

Favorite Part of JayDoc: I love being part of a team of medical students who share a passion for helping people and work diligently to provide high-quality medical care for the uninsured and underserved in the Wichita area.

Bliss Baird
Director of Student Education
Undergraduate Education: Graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a degree in biochemistry

Favorite Part of JayDoc: Caring for people! Our studies (especially in preclinical years) can seem far removed from the goal of serving others, so interacting with JayDoc patients reaffirms that we study hard because we want to serve well. The environment created by caring volunteers fosters a patient-centered approach with a heightened awareness of barriers to care. The same team also cares for each other. When I tried to emulate the senior students who had invested in me, I discovered a true passion for teaching!

Favorite Part of JayDoc: I always enjoy meeting patients, hearing their stories and making connections through my volunteer experience at the JayDoc Community Clinic.

Arman Hadjian
Administrative Director
Undergraduate Education: Graduated from the University of Kansas

Favorite Part of JayDoc: I have found that JayDoc has been a very close experience to what my family experienced when trying accessing hospital services after settling down in the United States. Based on what I have heard and taken part in within my family unit, it has been a humbling process to take part in seeing and caring for patients from different cultures throughout JayDoc in undergraduate studies as well as in medical school. Secondly, spending time with JayDoc as a medical student has felt like a huge milestone in what has felt like a lifetime of education!
