Why NRH-Georgetown? I knew NRH-Georgetown would be a great fit for me for its well-rounded exposure to PM&R, research at the NIH, range of educational tracks, and thoughtfully designed continuity clinic. NRH-Georgetown also shined for its ability to foster a community of support and mentorship, and it was obvious from my interview day that the faculty, residents, and staff enjoyed working and being with each other. All of these combined with the opportunity to train in DC made NRH an obvious choice!
