Pediatric Endocrinology Fellowship
Emory University, Atlanta, GA
The Peds program at MCG is the perfect size for training. You get to know others in the program intimately, but there are enough to help cover for you when needed. The faculty are very accessible and you're not competing for procedures or teaching.

AFTER GRADUATION:
Pediatric Critical Care Medicine Fellowship
Orlando, FL at Arnold Palmer Hospital for Children
MCG has a broad range of pathology and a robust team of sub-specialists. We are also a level 4 NICU with in house ECMO. Our LOE is adjacent to our sub-specialists in the event we have questions or want to discuss the referral process. Also one of the main things that did draw me into MCG was that it had exposure to the PICU during intern year and offered it all 3 years. MCG has a family ambiance and they always made me feel at home. I have always felt supported in all aspects of life including planning our wedding from afar and assisting me with my future career goals.

AFTER GRADUATION:
Academic Medicine at Augusta University- MCG and then Private Practice in Metro Atlanta
MCG has had such a positive impact on my career - it has trained me to be the best pediatrician that I can be. My time at MCG has not only opened my eyes to the true depth and breadth of pediatric medicine, but also the unique specialties within pediatrics. I left with exposure to the vast majority of diagnoses that I will see as a Pediatrician and the skills to manage those kids to the best of my ability!
Memorable Experience As a Resident: One of my favorite experience was our intern retreat. As an intern, you are busy in the hospital for what feels like forever. As May comes around, you can start to see the light through the trees. Our retreat was a great time for our entire class to get back together (the last time we were all together was during orientation) and just be with each other

AFTER GRADUATION:
General Pediatrics Private Practice
Lawrenceville, GA
I built long-lasting relationships with mentors and colleagues. I am grateful to have established these connections and know I can depend on them for resources in the future.
Memorable Experience As a Resident: My most memorable experience is celebrating a patient of mine being "cancer-free" in the Heme/Onc clinic
GRADUATION YEAR: 2017
AFTER GRADUATION:
Pediatric Pulmonary Fellowship
Riley Hospital for Children (Indianapolis, IN)
MCG prepared me to see a wide variety of conditions. Since we did not have too many subspecialty inpatient teams, most patients went to the Hospitalist Team, which is where you spend most of your time as a resident. You are very well prepared for any fellowship program or general pediatrics.
Memorable Experience As a Resident: All the camaraderie! I loved how close we all were in residency. We still keep in regular touch and some of my closest friends are those I met at MCG.
