Good luck with the GMAT!
A medical doctor is a very challenging and respected position in the US. I think you can find options in Healthcare consulting in the immediate timeframe, Fuqua and UNC offer good opportunities for people looking to get into Healthcare consulting - even if you don't have your heart on it, AdCom will love you if you write about it.

I believe you are aware that you qualify as a diversity candidate. However, to distinguish yourself within the diversity applicant pool and secure a spot in top-tier programs, it is essential to conduct thorough research and comprehend the unique offerings and pathways to your goals at each school you apply to.

If your aspirations involve healthcare-related objectives and you are considering top B-schools, schools like Tuck and Duke MBAs may be fitting choices due to their affiliations with medical schools. Both institutions have robust pharma/healthcare specializations and are renowned for their consulting prowess.

For a career in management consulting, you could present your short-term plan as targeting generalist consulting roles within the healthcare sector, eventually transitioning into a specialized track (e.g., marketing or research) after a few years, as many consulting firms offer this flexibility. In the mid to long term, you could explore leadership positions. Your ability to articulate your interest in a specific healthcare field will be pivotal in making your candidacy distinct.
