Kunnal Patel

I am a third-year student from the Rowan-Virtua School of Osteopathic Medicine. I grew up in Edison, N.J., and obtained my bachelor's degree in life sciences from the New York Institute of Technology. 

After college, I took some time off to figure out what field of science I wanted to pursue. I worked as an electrochemist, a pharmacy technician and volunteered as an Emergency Medical Technician. I started medical school after my gap years in Stratford, N.J.  

Outside of medical school, I enjoy spending my free time hanging out with friends and family, baking (and eating) desserts, and watching basketball.
