UVA combines being a great program with being located in a great place to live.\u00a0Charlottesville is beautiful and charming while also boasting lots of great restaurants and other attractions without the traffic of big cities. I have really enjoyed my past three years here, and look forward to staying in Charlottesville for my chief year.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thanks for taking a look at UVA, and feel free to email me with any questions!<\/em><\/p>\n

Hey everybody! Welcome to UVA Peds, and\u00a0thanks for checking us out! I grew up in Fishersville, VA, which is only about 30 minutes west of Charlottesville, or as people say here, \u201cjust over the mountain\u201d. I went to college at UVA and majored in biomedical ethics. Luckily, I was able to stay here for another four years. As medical school came to an end, I had to think seriously about whether or not I wanted to spend another 3 years in the same place. Sure enough, when interview season was over, my decision was easy \u2013 UVA was the best fit for me! All of the residents here are so friendly. They are not only co-workers –\u00a0but friends! The attendings are approachable and love to teach. The program size is perfect for getting to know your co-residents as well as getting to know your attendings on a more personal basis than is possible at some larger programs. Overall, UVA\u00a0has\u00a0proven to be a\u00a0great place to learn how to be a great pediatrician \u2013 general or specialized! In case it\u2019s not apparent by my \u201cTriple Hoo\u201d status, I think Charlottesville is the best place to live! I grew up in the area and have always been in love with the outdoor activities this area offers. The hiking around here is incredible, and you will never run out of wineries and breweries to try on your days off. The downtown mall is always lively, and it\u2019s very common to run into your co-residents there for \u201cFridays After Five\u201d or the Saturday morning farmers market. We have big and small concert venues that attract great shows. And of course, I wouldn\u2019t be a true C\u2019villian if I didn\u2019t mention the great food here \u2013 I have so many favorite restaurants that it\u2019s a struggle to choose just one every time I go out!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
