a reason that i joined this faculty
00:17
more than 15 years ago was the
00:19
collegiality amongst the group and the
00:21
willingness
00:22
of folks to see their responsibility as
00:25
a member of a unit
00:26
and to be flexible enough to contribute
00:29
to that unit in whatever way was
00:30
necessary
00:31
so i think that's allowed us to
00:33
intentionally recruit residents who feel
00:35
the same way
00:36
about their contribution to the
00:38
workforce i feel like
00:40
one important consideration for training
00:43
is whether you'll get a
00:44
really good breadth of experiences and
00:47
so we're very intentionally striving
00:50
to make sure that residents get a
00:52
healthy dose
00:53
of real world inpatient general medicine
00:57
an appropriate amount of sort of more
01:00
intense care
01:01
in our medical intensive care unit and
01:03
our ccu so both of those are
01:05
required and incorporated into rotations
01:08
that every resident will experience
01:10
certainly every resident experience is
01:12
outpatient primary care internal
01:14
medicine
01:15
in our system you experience it in four
01:18
week blocks
01:19
so that it feels a little bit more like
01:21
what being a primary care internist
01:22
would be like
01:24
in your future career but what's equally
01:26
important
01:27
is to have very wide access to
01:29
sub-specialty rotations
01:31
there's no way for you to decide as a
01:34
resident that you want to sign on for
01:35
the rest of your life as a cardiologist
01:37
or a nephrologist or a pulmonary
01:38
critical care physician
01:40
if you don't have opportunity to spend
01:42
some time with those folks and see what
01:43
they really do in their day-to-day life
01:45
so i think there's a nice balance
01:47
of opportunity between inpatient and
01:49
outpatient and general medicine and
01:51
subspecialty
01:52
when i'm talking to students that i'm
01:54
mentoring or
01:55
even applicants who approach me with an
01:57
interest in our program
01:59
and i think about things that i think
02:01
they would be interested in hearing
02:03
about and knowing about and how our
02:04
program could uniquely contribute to
02:07
their education
02:08
there are a couple of key pieces one is
02:11
our emphasis on inter-professional
02:13
health care we really feel like that
02:15
is the wave of the future in every area
02:19
of medicine
02:20
the other thing that i think sets us
02:21
apart is how we use
02:23
bedside or point of care ultrasound so
02:25
we feel
02:26
again that that really meaningfully
02:28
contributes to our ability to get
02:30
answers more quickly
02:32
and to more effectively provide patient
02:34
care
02:35
i would say the main factors that led me
02:37
to choose this particular residency
02:39
one of which was during my interview day
02:41
the program had just a very good
02:43
sense of camaraderie a very good sense
02:45
of welcomeness
02:46
in the program another one would be my
02:48
career goals are
02:50
to do a fellowship with cardiology i
02:52
wish this program this hospital program
02:54
has one
02:54
and a pretty good one and the third one
02:56
is just kind of the big academic
02:57
hospital setting
02:59
knowing that i would have exposure to
03:00
residents of all sorts of
03:02
specialties and subspecialties and that
03:04
way you kind of increase your own
03:05
learning experience
03:06
i applied very widely through kind of
03:08
the southern portions of the united
03:09
states i wanted some place warm
03:10
of which this place definitely is very
03:12
warm in terms of its location i mean
03:14
it's very centrally located
03:16
i like that i'm near kind of asheville
03:18
charlotte charleston
03:19
savannah atlanta even um so
03:22
i have the ability to kind of go and do
03:24
things on my time off this place itself
03:26
has a pretty good amount of nature
03:28
pretty good hikes nearby
03:29
i love the river the congo river is a
03:31
lot of fun the saluda is a lot of fun
03:33
they have great river walks
03:35
see i would say the best part of my
03:36
experience has been kind of my
03:37
co-residence
03:39
i think the world of my class and even
03:41
the classes above and below me
03:42
were all really easy going and good to
03:45
work with
03:46
no one's very difficult and you know we
03:48
all kind of have each other's backs
03:49
and i really appreciate that kind of
03:52
system and environments
03:53
of learning i would say autonomy um you
03:56
know
03:57
when you go from your first year to your
03:58
second year there's a quite a huge burst
04:01
and then from second year to third year
04:03
they're basically trust interesting you
04:05
with
04:05
a lot of these patients care and it all
04:07
kind of starts in the medical icu i
04:09
think the medical icu is very resident
04:11
run
04:12
and that's where you kind of earn you
04:14
learn your own confidence and your own
04:16
abilities and you
04:17
and you kind of use those skills that
04:19
you get in the medical ic you kind of
04:21
push your stamp on patients in
04:22
all other rotations you kind of feel
04:24
more confident being your own physician
04:25
i'm hata muyajit i'm a first-year
04:28
resident
04:29
at internal medicine program at prisma
04:31
health transition from a medical school
04:33
to a residency is a very hard step
04:36
and having the right people around you
04:40
speaking of right people i mean senior
04:42
residents attendings
04:44
who will lead you every step of the way
04:47
and teaching you how to become
04:48
a great doctor makes a huge difference
04:51
and i think so far this program exceeded
04:55
my expectation
04:56
in platinum when i was applying the for
04:58
residency program i was looking up for a
05:01
training
05:01
that would offer me to become a better
05:04
doctor
05:05
and doctor that can treat various
05:08
clinical
05:09
diseases and at the same time
05:12
i was also looking for a program that is
05:15
offering
05:16
a good life and work balance and i think
05:19
that this program that the prisma health
05:22
actually fulfilled both of my
05:23
requirements so colombia
05:26
um it's a great city to live and it has
05:28
great people
05:30
and so speaking from the perspective
05:33
of a person who didn't grow maybe around
05:36
here
05:37
people i was so actually surprised that
05:40
people
05:41
are so friendly and so accepting
05:44
and especially in this program as well
05:47
so
05:47
that is one of the factors that actually
05:50
drew me here
05:51
for now since i'm at the beginning i'm
05:54
still
05:55
not sure about whether i'll continue
05:57
with a fellowship or just
05:58
continue with the general internal
06:00
medicine but
06:02
i can say that this program is a great
06:04
foundation no matter
06:06
what path we choose
06:21
you
