72-Year-Old Dawn Zuidgeest-Craft Graduates Medical School, Begins Residency
Dawn Zuidgeest-Craft, a 72-year-old former nurse practitioner, is set to graduate from medical school and begin a residency in family medicine. After a long career in healthcare and raising four children, Zuidgeest-Craft pursued her lifelong dream of becoming a doctor. Her journey was reignited after her husband survived a brain hemorrhage, prompting her to enroll in a Caribbean medical school. Despite her age, she completed her studies and will start a three-year residency in Michigan, aiming to practice medicine for as long as possible.
