PROGRAM OVERVIEW
For the 2022-23 recruitment season we are trying to flip the classroom and let applicants review our program overview prior to interviewing with us. We hope this will save time and zoom fatigue on our interview days. Enjoy this conversation that was recorded on Aug 21, 2022 and features Catherine Burger (APD), Ti James (PGY1), Alexa Thomas (PGY2), Alyssa Seibold (PGY3), and Matthew Pirotte (PD). This discussion of the program can be listened to as a "podcast" if you want, we decided to use no slides or visuals so it would be easy to learn all about us while you go about your day.
Check out the Vanderbilt entry from the EMRA Medical Student Council video interview series live from ACEP 2022. This video highlights two of our Chief Residents, Dr. Emily Pauw and Dr. Gabby Leonard. It covers what they love about Vandy EM and why it is a great place to work and train.
