"I had the chance to talk with Cali Pastor, and her advice really opened my eyes. I have been thinking about studying abroad in Spain, but I didn’t know how it all worked. Luckily, I found her on Instagram and messaged her with a few questions. She replied quickly, and we set up a call where she explained what some programs are like and what to expect as an international student. She told me about the structure of medical school in Spain, how it’s six years long and starts right after high school, unlike the U.S. system. She shared her experience and it made me feel like studying medicine abroad was not only possible, but worth the challenge. It reminded me that even though the path may be tough, it’s achievable and that there are people out there willing to share what they’ve learned to help others succeed."

"I am incredibly grateful to Cali for the invaluable support and guidance they provided on my journey to understanding the concept of medicine in Spain. Cali took the time to explain everything to me in clear, detailed terms, patiently answering all my questions and ensuring I truly understood the educational system, requirements, and pathway to becoming a medical professional there.
What stood out the most was their willingness to go the extra mile—Cali even hopped on a video call with me to walk me through everything personally. That conversation truly helped clear my thoughts and gave me a much-needed sense of direction and confidence.
Thanks to Cali’s kindness, clarity, and dedication, I now feel empowered and much more prepared to pursue my dream of studying medicine in Spain. I couldn’t have done this without their help."

"As a family relocating from the US to Spain and my oldest planning to pursue a career in medicine, we started our research and were quickly overwhelmed. Thankfully we found Cali! She not only explained how medical school works in Spain, and the process, she helped us break down our action plan into manageable pieces. We can reach her easily as needed for guidance and she connected to an immigration attorney to an intensive language school, to a PCE prep academy, and more! It is such a relief working with Cali. Instead of feeling stressed, we can focus on feeling excited for the move and enrollment in med school!”
