Student Doctor and Friend

In this episode of Our Voices, Our Future, we welcome Aida Mansour, a fourth-year medical student at St. George’s University and the creator behind “Dr. Mansour in the Making.” Aida is passionate about neurology and deeply committed to making medicine more human-centered and accessible. Through her platform, she’s built an authentic community that celebrates the highs and lows of medical training, inspiring future physicians to embrace resilience, empathy, and authenticity in their journeys.

During this episode, we talk about Aida’s path into medicine, her experiences as a woman in clinical settings, and the moments that have shaped her perspective on equity and representation in the medical field. She opens up about navigating bias, finding empowerment through mentorship, and the importance of friendship and solidarity among women in medicine. Aida also shares heartfelt reflections on resilience, advocacy, and the lessons she’s learned about staying true to herself while pursuing her dream of becoming a physician.
