We asked our 2020 graduates on the Florida campus to share one word describing their Palmer College experience and something they’re looking forward to after graduation. Congratulations to our Palmer graduates Class of 204!
Pablo Camacho
Prepared.
During my time at Palmer, I’ve been constantly challenged in all aspects the profession has to offer, making me well prepared to become the best doctor I can be in the future.
After graduation, I will do my best to open up a practice in Puerto Rico, where I will be giving patients the best chiropractic care they can receive.
Giovanna Chambers
Transformative.
Palmer has given me the education I never expected. I have learned and grown substantially over the last 3 1/2 years and I couldn’t be more grateful. The experiences I have had and relationships I have built have empowered me to be the best version of myself possible, both professionally and personally. I am excited to begin the next phase of my career and truly help people through chiropractic care! Congratulations Class 204, we made it!
Aspen Coggins.
Growth.
My experience at Palmer has brought me so much growth in education, relationships, life, but most importantly myself. I’m excited to close this chapter and open a new one. Thank you to everyone who’s been in my corner supporting and rooting me on, especially my family. Congrats class 204! We did it!
CJ Cooper
Grateful.
I’m so incredibly grateful for the friends who became my second family, for the opportunities I was given, for the knowledge I have gained, for the patients we have served, and last but not least, for getting to live by the beach for three years! It’s been one heck of a ride so far and I’m excited to see what the future holds for Class 204!
Amanda Del Valle
Authentic.
My time at Palmer has been filled with new and unforgettable experiences. I met people, who like me, were passionate about helping others through a natural and hands-on approach. We pushed one another to succeed through this program while also staying true to ourselves and our beliefs. I am grateful to begin my career as a Doctor of Chiropractic and help those in need.
Congratulations Class 204, I hope you continue to be authentic to yourselves and our profession!
Kevin Morales
Enlightenment.
At first I wasn’t sure what this profession is all about, other than the traditional stuff we know (back and neck issues). As soon as I started in school I began to learn how the body works and I immediately fell in love with it. Now I’m at the point where I can and I will give hope and light to those people that lost their energy because they tried “everything” and nothing else worked. I truly feel blessed. As I always say, this profession chose me to give enlightenment and hope to those people that need it.
Drasti Patel
Influential.
Whenever anyone would say, ‘Cherish these three years they’ll pass by sooner than you’ll think,’ I didn’t take them seriously, but the past three years flew by and I couldn’t be more thankful for this experience! It’s been an incredible journey Class 204 and I hope we all continue to be passionate and grow the chiropractic profession! I’m thankful for my Palmer experience.
Marco Ramirez
Resilience.
One word that best describes my Palmer experience is “resilience.” We’re all currently living in very difficult and weird times where many of us have had to adapt to adversity and cope through misfortunes. It is important to overcome those difficulties while staying positive, loving your neighbors, and being nice to strangers. Always remember that direction is more important than speed, and there’s no better reward than setting a goal and crushing it.
Angela Van Waes
Fruitful.
When I started this journey I did not know just how much it was going to change my life. During my time at Palmer I have had the chance to meet so many amazing people, and learn as much as I possibly could about chiropractic along the way. My passion for treating families has flourished during my time in the Palmer clinic and while on preceptor. I go on to practice feeling inspired and honored to serve others through this profession.
I look forward to serving the families of the Ellenton, Florida community. I am excited to make a difference in people’s lives and improve their health on a daily basis.
