" Working with Dr. Unger is a great way to get front line experience in the medical field. We are able to work alongside Dr. Unger with patients and gain a better understanding of internal medicine. This professional work environment exposes us to different patient cases, diagnostics and procedure.  In addition to patient interactions, we get a hands on approach to the way a Doctors office functions. As a Pre-Med student interning here has given us great insight into possible medical careers. "

"Dear Dr. Unger,


I am writing to thank you for the valuable experience I had shadowing you in 2012-2013. I also want to thank you for the wonderful letter of recommendation you gave me to assist with my medical school applications. I will be attending NYU School of Medicine this fall, and I know I would never have had this opportunity if it were not for you."

"Dr. Unger, 


Friday the 15th, I am graduating from Georgetown University with my Master's in Physiology and Biophysics. Thank you for putting me on the path towards medicine. It was in your office that I first thought that I wanted to go to medical school. Without your recommendation, I would not be graduating from Georgetown. I just wanted you to know that working in your office, and being mentored by you really changed my life. Again, thank you for supporting me and leading me towards medicine."

" I worked with Dr. Unger as a teenager. He inspired me to become a doctor. A  great  teacher and  mentor to  this day."

​"My experience in your office has been invaluable to me; simple things like knowing how to read lab results and basic knowledge of some reference ranges have been surprisingly helpful in classes like physiology. Perhaps more importantly, having an awareness of the multifaceted issues with which patients struggle makes it easier to see how different pathologies fit into the broader context of quality of life and knowledge of how the different organizations involved in providing medical care, coverage and support interact has been extremely important to understanding how various parts of the system can present challenges to quality care."​
