Why Duke: Duke meets and exceeds the values I was looking for in a program: a high-volume center with balanced AP/CP training, various fellowship opportunities, work-life balance, and flexibility to support individual career goals. More importantly, I had a great impression of the residents, faculty, and Dr. Cummings from my interview, and I felt that the environment they created was collaborative, supportive, and positive.
Why Durham: I hear only good things from people who have lived here about Durham’s community feel and diversity. I am so excited to experience good weather, find the best foods, and be in proximity to both mountains and beaches!
