Why did you choose VUMC Emergency Medicine?

I had the opportunity to rotate at VUMC during my fourth year and immediately felt at home at this program. All of the faculty, staff, and residents were so kind and truly went above and beyond to provide exceptional patient care while also keeping education a priority for their residents and students. I knew if I trained at VUMC, I would receive some of the best teaching in the country and would come out of residency as a confident and excellent clinician. Plus, Nashville seemed like a fun place to live
