We’re thrilled you’re exploring what we believe is one of the most dynamic and supportive training environments in the country. As chief residents, we couldn’t be happier with our decision to train at Christ. What drew each of us here—and continues to inspire us daily—is the incredible patient population we serve and the genuine “family” feel that defines our program. From day one, we’ve been embraced by compassionate, dedicated faculty and teammates who challenge us, support us, and celebrate our growth. At Christ, you’ll find unmatched clinical exposure in a nationally recognized, high-acuity, high-volume emergency department, all while being part of a close-knit community that truly cares. We’re proud to call this place home, and we can’t wait to share it with you.
