Why did you choose Brown?
Brown offers everything I was looking for in a residency program - a wide range of academic, research, and global health opportunities with a diverse patient population, exposure to various hospitals, and a balanced experience within general surgery and the surgical specialties. I was impressed by the strong commitment to clinical excellence, teaching, and personal growth shared amongst faculty and residents.
What are your favorite things about Providence and RI?
Providence is a beautiful and affordable smaller East Coast city. Living in Rhode Island, America’s smallest state, everything is truly within reach on a day or weekend off, whether beach, mountains or a big city.
