Many of the students are seniors and said they’re looking to study medicine in college.

“I think it’s a really good way for people to be understanding and getting a hands-on experience. I think it’s really great that they’re doing this, it really helped me kind of like cement my feelings of wanting to join the medical field,” said Amirah Rhofiry, a student at Coe-Brown High School.

It was the second year the hospital held the expo.
