Why Rush Geriatrics: Rush has been a great fit for me because of its strong emphasis on person-centered care and the opportunity to learn how to care for older adults across a variety of settings. I value being part of a program where faculty are genuinely invested in teaching and mentorship, and care about me not only as a physician but also a person. I feel supported while also challenged to grow and grateful to be training in an environment that is helping me become a more thoughtful, compassionate and well-rounded geriatrician with great co-fellows that make the experience even better.
