An Vo was born and raised in a rural village in Central Vietnam, where access to basic necessities-let alone healthcare-was scarce. Growing up, I saw many people around me suffer from chronic illnesses without access to proper treatment, she recalls. The only available care came from untrained individuals, and many couldn't afford to travel to cities for help. These early experiences inspired me to pursue a career in medicine, driven by a deep desire to advocate for underserved populations and provide the care my community never had. Her family eventually relocated to the United States, and An became a registered nurse in 2014 and a Family Nurse Practitioner in 2021.
