Residency: Wayne State University

Why Georgetown? - It checked all the boxes of being in a big city, offering the full breadth of pulmonary/critical care. Small close-knit program where you own airway, chest tubes, tracheostomies and perform advance IP procedures without an IP fellow. Most importantly, the faculty seemed genuine and interested in your future on interview day.

Favorite thing about DC: Big city with lots to offer in terms of outdoor activities and the underrated food scene.
