Why I Chose UCI/CHOC: I really loved knowing I would have the opportunity to work at two different free-standing children's hospitals during my time in residency. I was also impressed by how the residents seemed to know each other so well and still have a lot of fun together even in a bigger program! As someone also interested in fellowship, I knew I would have so many opportunities here to work with different types of subspecialists and really figure out what I want to do. Overall, I just loved it all!
