Why did you choose UCDavis EM?

I chose UC Davis EM because it is one the few places in the country that offers world class emergency medicine training with a diverse patient population and has excellent proximity to mountains, beaches and fun cities! When I interviewed at UC Davis, I also noticed how happy residents were and how well they got along. Now that I am here I love exactly that about the program. There is an excellent culture of co-residents working together, helping each other out and doing tons of fun activities together outside of the hospital like climbing, skiing, hiking, surfing, and sailing to name a few. UC Davis is one of the only programs in the country where you can climb or ski or recreate outdoors and be back for a shift the same day!
