Is this possible, or is it not a college (is it a medical school)? What are some other good colleges for future doctors? Thanks.

Case Western offers undergrad and graduate programs, so if you began your college career there and did their medical school, you’d get a world-class education.
Any college that offers a formal pre-med program is a good choice. A formal pre-med program means that the university will incorporate the medical prerequisite courses into your Major, meaning you won’t have to delay getting your degree. In a college that doesn’t have a formal pre-med program, you have to take all of the courses required for the college to award you the degree plus take the prerequisite courses for medical school.
