Why I’m a resident
One of the main reasons I chose the Regions program was because of their reputation for training emergency medicine physicians who can manage patients of all ages presenting with a variety of illnesses and injuries. During my rotation, it was evident that Regions’ residents see an even mix of complex medical and multisystem trauma along with common “bread and butter” presentations leaving them adequately prepared to work in whatever setting they desire. My rotation also allowed me to see that residents were happy, supportive of each other, loved to do things together outside of residency, and did not appear to be exhausted. Everyone I interacted with treated me as if I was part of the Regions family. Now as a resident, it is even more evident to me that the program goes above and beyond to ensure that we as residents are trained to be exceptional physicians. I am beyond grateful for this dedication and to have such intelligent, supportive, and fun co-residents by my side to complete this journey with.
Living in the Twin Cities
The Twin Cities is a terrific place to live. Not only is it absolutely beautiful in the North Star State, you can actually afford to live, work, and play here. You’ll find that Minnesota is one of the best states for health care in the nation. And yes, “Minnesota Nice” is a real thing. These reasons make Minnesota one of the best states to learn and practice medicine.
