  • Meet Dr. Kevin Mullins, the faculty speaker for Sunday's induction ceremony and an alum of our school of medicine (class of 2015)! Name, position and fun fact about yourself Kevin Mullins, MD, Assistant Clinical Professor in Sports Medicine, Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. Fun Fact: While playing basketball in college, I sustained a major knee injury that required surgery and intensive rehab. It was through this experience that I developed my passion for sports medicine and ultimately led to my pursuit of medical school. What does the induction ceremony mean to you? Why is it important? The ceremony is truly a special day. It is as much a moment of celebration for what’s to come, as it is also an important time to reflect back and truly appreciate all of those special individuals in your life who have supported you every step of the way, in your dream of becoming a medical physician one day. What is your biggest piece of advice for the class of 2024? Begin to build your community early and don’t shy away from getting involved. My favorite memories of 1st year medical school at UC Davis arise from volunteering for student-run clinics and leading in campus advocacy groups. These are great ways to not only practice your clinical skills, but also serve as awesome opportunities to better connect with your classmates and future medical colleagues.
