Doctor Diaries is a podcast launched by Alpha Epsilon Delta at the University of Houston. We aim to provide our members, and pre-meds everywhere, a glimpse into what life is like in the medical field. We also hope to provide students useful tips and advice that they can use in their own pre-medical journeys.

Alpha Epsilon Delta is the largest national pre-medical honor society at the University of Houston. Our goal is to provide the resources and information for members to succeed as a pre-med student and be the best medical school applicant they can be. If you are not trying to get into medical school, no problem! We offer many different professional training workshops (interviews, resume, etc) and volunteering events that could help when pursuing any healthcare profession. Lastly, AED is a big family! Come and meet people that share similar goals as you.
