That experience continues to shape how I approach critical illness, teamwork, communication, and the systems surrounding the bedside.
Thank you for reviewing my portfolio.
I am applying to Internal Medicine–based Critical Care Medicine fellowship with interests in bedside education, shock and hemodynamics, simulation, mechanical circulatory support, and ICU systems improvement.
