Some #APSA26 highlights from Chicago last week! Grateful for the opportunity to present work from the past 2 years @ChildrensColo alongside the best mentors and collaborators, cheer on my co-residents, and witness how this community continues pushing pediatric surgery forwards.
Wrapping up an excellent couple of days at #ACSQSC24. What a great forum to discuss some of the work we’re doing in Pediatric Surgery @Nemours, learn from Quality and Safety giants and connect with the @JEFFsurgery cohort in Denver, CO.
Training the next generation of surgeons is one of our top priorities. Our General Surgery Residency Program (led by Dr. @KarenChojnacki) is currently training 21 talented women - nearly half of our resident physicians. 👏

(1/3) Today’s my last day of intern year, a year which was challenging but in different ways than I had expected. I spent several months soul searching before finally accepting that my heart and my interests were in a different specialty than the one I matched in.
(3/3) To anyone considering a specialty switch… Listen to your heart. Seek trusted mentors and advocates. Choose your happiness. Accept the unknowns. Have the hard conversations. I’m so glad I did.
(2/3) I’m so excited to share that I’ll be a general surgery resident starting July 1 and I’m immensely grateful to be joining the @JEFFsurgery family. I’m also very appreciative of my urology training this past year and for the support I’ve been given in making this transition.
Wrapped up my Trauma/ACS rotation yesterday and reminiscing on this multidisciplinary power overnight team from last week. @JEFFsurgery@JEFFUrology@Jefferson_OTO
