Honored to be joining @MSKCancerCenter for residency and excited for what’s to come!

[Bernardo Costa Guerra, MD @bcostaguerramd]

So proud of you! Well deserved 💯

@Mambakito @mahad_minhas @Discover Financial history/higher credit card limits wouldn't help in getting a residency position, however it does help when you need to rent an apartment, buy a car, moving costs to start residency, etc. Just makes things easier especially before your paycheck starts kicking in.

[Bernardo Costa Guerra, MD @bcostaguerramd]

You deserve it! Congratulations 🎊

[Vitor Falcão @vitorfalcaoMD]

Dreams do come true.
