Why did you choose WashU Medicine for your ID fellowship?
"I appreciated the large volume of providers between adult and pediatric infectious diseases. The Program Director, Dr. Wooten, also referred me to the Program Director for Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Dr. Rosen, after reading my personal statement. She encouraged me to consider a dual fellowship, something I had previously given up on due to concerns for it being logistically too complicated. They were welcoming and encouraging which promoted my desire to come here. Ultimately, I had a gut feeling that this was the right place for me, and I'm super happy to be here now having completed my first year of Pediatric Infectious Disease fellowship."
