Why did I choose MCW for fellowship?
Children's Wisconsin has an incredible Endocrinology program that offers a chance to see the entire spectrum of endocrine pathologies and learn from the diverse and knowledgeable faculty. Children's Wisconsin caters to a large population of children with diabetes and strives to provides wholistic care, supported by the cutting-edge research at the McGee Diabetes research center. The various subspecialty clinics were an added attraction, especially gender health and brain tumor, which are my areas of interest. The warm and collegial nature of the program was evident during the interview, and I knew I would love being a part of this Endocrine family. The program provides mentorship in a nurturing environment while supporting fellows to advance in their chosen path and help them become unique and skilled Physician- scientists. Lastly, I was living in Milwaukee for a year prior to beginning fellowship and truly enjoyed the culture and everything the city has to offer.

One of the best things about living in Milwaukee?
It has all the great aspects of a big city life without the drawbacks of traffic and a hectic lifestyle. My family and I enjoy the different seasons that bring the breathtaking fall colors, pristine snow and lovely summer, with tons of related activities. We appreciate the leisurely pace of life, warmth of the people and affordable cost of living. It also has one of the best school systems in the country.
