OB/GYN Residency Program

Why did you choose WIH/Brown OB/GYN?

While researching residency programs, I was attracted to Brown because of their commitment to education, diversity and advocacy. On interview day, I fell in love with the program because of the people. It was easy to connect with the residents, midwives, and attendings because they were so warm, welcoming, and excited to learn more about me. I also knew that Brown would offer a supportive training environment that would allow me to thrive so I can become an excellent clinician and leader in the field.

What are your interests within OB/GYN?

While I hope to pursue a Maternal Fetal medicine fellowship after residency, I am excited to explore the different OB-GYN sub-specialties, especially Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility and Gynecological Oncology. I am also interested in conducting research and creating initiatives to reduce racial disparities in maternal and infant health.

What is your favorite thing to do in Providence and/or Rhode Island?

I am a foodie so I love to try different restaurants. Fortunately, Providence was ranked as one of the top ten foodie cities in America so I will take advantage the city’s thriving food scene. I am also excited to visit the beaches and eat delicious fresh seafood!

One piece of advice for candidates:

Reach out to residents who share a similar background to you. Often, I would ask residents if I could speak with them over the phone to learn about their experiences. While the pre-interview socials gave me a great opportunity to learn about a program’s culture, speaking to individual residents offered amazing, excellent insight that allowed me to better assess if I would be a good fit for their program.
