I am looking to improve my public speaking skills. I am about to matriculate to medical school this fall. Which clubs or organizations do you recommend me to join once in med school? Thanks in advance!

I think that you'll get plenty of public speaking experience with case presentations, journal clubs etc.

Nothing beats Toast Masters. They're #1 in public speaking coaching.

There are clubs and organizations in medical school? Or is that fancy speak for bars? :-D And bars may be the best place to learn public oration.
Though in all seriousness, you will get used to public speaking VERY quickly in medical school, when you have to present patients and cases. The good news is that a lot of it are formatted that you know exactly the way you instructors, attendings/etc will want them (after they yell at you).
Wait until you get into residency and have to do M&Ms. That's like public speaking and public crucifixion all at once!
