Why NRH? I was looking for a program that offered a wide breadth of training among the various sub-specialties under the umbrella of physical medicine & rehabilitation. The vast amount of research opportunities, the continuity clinic, and various tracks further solidified my desire to train at NRH. The warm and compassionate residents and faculty further made me feel at home during my NRH interview. I know with this extensive training and becoming a part of a supportive team will further help me develop into a well-rounded physiatrist in the city I have always called home!
