The People
At Children's Memorial Hospital, we pride ourselves on
a tradition of camaraderie. For the last two decades, the residents and faculty
in our program have created an environment with the paramount goal of
achieving optimal working relationships. Having built a reputation with a true "esprit
de corps," we exhibit a great deal of pride in what we do, and we have a
good time doing it. Our residents represent a broad ethnic, educational and
cultural spectrum, making us a diverse group and helping us create this special
atmosphere.
The number of different medical schools represented by our house staff
exceeds half the total number of residents themselves. This is a reflection of
the broad distribution of applicants to our program. This diversity adds
immeasurably to our group spirit and to our challenging and inquisitive
environment. Through our program of retreats, social gatherings and informal
get-togethers, the residents form a tightly knit community, entwined with the
hospital staff, faculty and administration.
