Why did you choose to do your residency at BIDMC?: I chose to do my residency at BIDMC because I felt like the cardiology team really cared about the resident and their learning. I felt like BIDMC was going to be a great place to challenge myself and learn from the best! The curriculum felt very diverse and had a great split of acute care and ambulatory care rotations. With my main cardiology interest being heart failure, I am very happy that the rotations provide the opportunity to work within the heart failure teams across multiple settings. When making my decision, it was important to pick a place that provided the support to help me grow and become a confident cardiology pharmacist.
