Recruitment

Madiha Baig is a fourth-year medical student at New York Medical College. Born and raised in the Bronx to immigrant parents, she saw early on how immigration status, language barriers, and systemic inequities shape people’s lives long before they enter the healthcare system. In her community, many families carried stories of displacement, trauma, and resilience. These early experiences sparked her commitment to serve vulnerable populations and to make social change. Her passion for advocacy, medicine, and human rights led her to become involved with NYMC CHR. Through this work, she continues to explore the intersection of medicine and social justice. In her free time, Madiha enjoys dancing salsa, reading poetry, and spending time in nature.
