How has your experience been in this program? I have been deeply impressed by Mayo Clinic's unwavering commitment to its core pillars of research, education, and patient care. This dedication is evident in every interaction I have had, and I consistently witness a strong work ethic and a shared commitment to excellence. I have found myself growing into a more diligent individual, and the faculty here have truly inspired me to pursue this development. The complexity of the patients we care for has helped me mature, not only as a rheumatologist but also as a clinician. Additionally, the program is highly considerate of your pace of learning, and the overall culture is congenial and friendly, making it a supportive environment for personal and professional growth.
What do you like about living in Phoenix? I have thoroughly enjoyed my time in Phoenix. I appreciate the sunny weather and the warm temperatures during the winter months. Scottsdale offers a wide range of activities, from free outdoor pickleball to toddler-friendly strolls in the park. Additionally, the traffic is manageable, making commuting between the clinic and hospital quite convenient.
