Jasmine is a rising star in Pediatric Surgery. Congrats!

Been a whirlwind of a couple days. Thanks to Jenn Waljee from University of Michigan for visiting and being our guest for the IU School of Medicine Department of Surgery Resident Research Day. Great dinner, camaraderie, and presentations by our residents.

Biggest piece of advice for my fourth years on auditions / applying into surgery residency: GO WHERE YOU ARE CELEBRATED. I did many auditions and some places were a clear not match. Lean into those feelings heavy and prioritize what you want in a program.

We had a great time celebrating our graduating General Surgery Chief Residents last Friday!🎉 We are so proud of their hard work and dedication and we wish them nothing but the best as they move forward in their surgical careers.🙌 #IUSurgery #IUGeneralSurgery
