Learner Summary
What do you like about your program?
I remember being impressed by the community at this program. The residents and leadership were genuine, kind, and just seemed like a close-knit group of people. It made the program feel like something I wanted to be a part of. Something I didn’t get a great feel for until I started here was how large the Med-Peds presence is. There are Med-Peds docs everywhere, so it is a well-respected and well understood program here.
What are your hobbies?
Spending time with my wife and daughter, watching baseball (St. Louis Cardinals), fishing, kayaking, hiking, bourbon collecting, playing very mediocre piano and guitar.
