Michael Natter, MD
Mike was born and raised on the Upper West Side of NYC. He was drawn to the arts at a young age and has been creating art ever since he was able to hold a crayon. Diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes at age nine, Mike quickly became interested in the medical world; however, he decided to pursue his artistic passions while in undergrad at Skidmore College. It wasn't until his final year at Skidmore that he developed the academic confidence to give medicine a chance. Natter went onto complete a post-bac pre-med program at Columbia University and subsequently graduated from Jefferson Medical College in 2017. While in medical school, he utilized his art to help him master complex medical concepts and navigate the emotional journey of learning the craft of doctoring. Mike is currently an internal medicine resident at a New York hospital and plans to do a fellowship in endocrinology. His work has been featured from BuzzFeed to The Philadelphia Inquirer among other publications. Follow his journey on Instagram: mike.natter and on Twitter: @mike_natter
