Following receiving my MD and Masters in Public Health at Rochester\u2019s School of Medicine and Dentistry, I interviewed around the country to decide where the best fit would be for my residency. Not only did I end up at a place that is a hub for discovery, it also is a collegial, collaborative, and supportive medical community. There is a culture here that is dedicated to best practices for continuous learning. Everyone\u2014professors, deans, administrators, colleagues\u2014is invested in us as clinicians and as people. As I near completion of my orthopaedics residency and move on for my surgical fellowship, I am reflecting on the professional and personal relationships that I built here, and how they will always be an important part of my medical school experience.<\/p>\n<p>I feel honored to have been given an opportunity to train and explore my passion for medicine in such a patient-centered, empowering environment. Thanks to the generosity of resident and fellow alumni, my residency experience has been enhanced with opportunities that may not have otherwise been possible. Without alumni support, I would not have had the exposure to visiting professors and opportunities to attend conferences\u2014which are vital to our knowledge growth, networking, and future career opportunities. I am confident that when I complete my residency here and move on to my next level of career training, I will be an even more well-rounded and knowledgeable physician.[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;25px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][vc_column_text]<a href=\"https:\/\/securelb.imodules.com\/s\/1676\/giving2\/giving2.aspx?sid=1676&amp;gid=2&amp;pgid=836&amp;cid=1671&amp;appealcode=16M35\"><strong>Make a gift today to support School of Medicine and Dentistry \u00bb<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.urmc.rochester.edu\/smd\/\"><strong>Learn more about the School of Medicine and Dentistry \u00bb<\/strong><\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;50px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;center&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column]<a href=\"\/advancement\/ways-to-give\/annual-giving\/our-stories\/\" target=\"_self\" data-hover-background-color=#ffd102 data-hover-border-color=#00467f data-hover-color=#002968  class=\"qbutton  medium white icon_right\" style=\"color: #00467f; border-color: #ffd102; border-width: 1px; font-weight: 600; background-color: #ffd102;\">Explore More Stories<\/a>[vc_empty_space height=&#8221;100px&#8221; image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;full_width&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; box_shadow_on_row=&#8221;no&#8221;][vc_column][vc_column_text] Anna&#8217;s Story [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Nobody does it better than Rochester\u2014this place and these people fit my personality and lifestyle as an aspiring academic orthopaedic surgeon.
