Medicus

In today’s episode, we take a look at a unique scholarship opportunity that allows healthcare professionals to pay for their education while serving their country. Learn the ins and outs of the Health Professions Scholarship Program from Jesse Webb, a medical student in the program within the Air Force.

Jesse Webb is a fourth year medical student at Loyola University Chicago, Stritch School of Medicine. Originally from Minnesota, Jesse has always called the Midwest his home. After four years in St. Paul, MN studying biology at Bethel University and singing in the college’s internationally-recognized Bethel Choir, Jesse moved back to his hometown in Rosemount, MN where he advocated and cared for adults with disabilities at ACR Homes, worked as an Emergency Department medical scribe, and gained clinical research experience at ThreeWire, Inc. He commissioned in the U.S. Air Force as a 2nd Lieutenant, enrolling in the Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) prior to moving to Chicago and matriculating at Loyola Stritch School of Medicine. Jesse anticipates completing a residency in Emergency Medicine and thereafter serving as a physician in the Air Force while hoping to participate in humanitarian missions abroad. When not studying or in the hospital, you can find him binging Marvel, running or hiking in the great outdoors, writing and recording music, or spending time with family, friends, and animals. He is eager to become an emergency medicine physician and would love to help anyone looking for a resource or advice!
