Why Orlando Health ORMC: I was looking for a program that would challenge me clinically and help me discover who I want to become professionally, all while training in a high-volume, high-acuity setting. There’s a handful of programs that share those characteristics, but ORMC stood out in how apparent the residents really enjoyed being with each other at the virtual social the night before the interview. Day of, I was disarmed by how quickly I felt comfortable with the faculty and how short, 15 minute encounters fostered an excitement for joining La Famiglia.
