During her time as chief resident, Dr. Margaret Burks was part of endeavors to improve systems within Vanderbilt University Medical Center. “I enjoyed interacting with professionals outside of medicine, but I found that, as a physician, I did not have the background or training in how to ‘speak the language’ of administration, operations, or management,” she says.

With the encouragement of her division, Margaret enrolled in Vanderbilt’s MMHC program. She calls it “one of the best decisions I ever made.”
