Why NRH-Georgetown? The programs comprehensive curriculum, robust training, and the opportunity to provide longitudinal care with the continuity clinic aligns with my goal of excelling in patient-centered rehabilitation. Additionally, with NRH’s resources and the diverse population of DC, I can continue my interest in research and my involvement in underrepresented and marginalized populations. I also love the opportunities to teach and mentor as a resident at this program. On top of all that, my interview with this program stood out immensely! I loved the sense of community and belonging that even a virtual interview was able to convey. Having close family and friends in the northeast as well, I couldn’t give up the opportunity to train here.
