What attracted you to the SIU Center for Family Medicine ?
The environment that leads to learning in a wonderful environment.

What makes this program unique ?
The relaxed atmosphere between colleagues, including attendings, nurses and residents.

What is living in Springfield like for you ?
I genuinely like it. Its stress free, extremely affordable and there are lots of friendly people, nice parks, and its easy to plan weekend getaways.

What will your future practice be ?
Hopefully one in which I get to see patients of all ages with varied medical problems. I'm still not sure on the specifics in terms of traditional family practice or urgent care practice at first.
