Why geriatrics?

"When I spent time in a nursing home facility, I fell in love with the stories patients would tell and I was challenged by how to best manage their multifaceted medical care. This fellowship allows me to be engaged in several avenues of geriatric care - outpatient, inpatient, short-term nursing, long-term care, and homebound evaluations. This fellowship has also allowed me to further my training in medical directorship and complete the requirements towards becoming a certified medical director, which was an opportunity special to our Geriatric Fellowship at Mayo Clinic."
