An African-American With A Desire To Inspire.
When I was a resident, I always wondered what attendings and fellows did after morning rounds. I knew that I was grinding out my work all day long and while I had some attendings who would be right there with us in the trenches getting the day’s work done, I had others who would disappear […]

How incredible is it that I’ve already been living in Atlanta for well over a month now?? It’s hard to believe that not too long ago, my wife and I packed all of our belongings and hauled ourselves down here from North Carolina to start our new lives. So much has happened between the time […]

And just like that, both my chief year and my time in North Carolina have come to an end. 🥲 My time as a chief resident officially ended a little over a week ago, and I no longer have any obligations to fulfill in that role. The new chiefs have successfully taken over our jobs […]

Well, it may come as no surprise to you that in between my last post and now, I’ve continued to move through chief year at full throttle. There’s never a shortage of things to do and situations to take care of. There is always something that we can work to improve upon. There is always […]
Read MoreBruh. I’ve been WORKIN’. At the time of my last post, I was on a more chill, primarily outpatient clinic rotation out in Greensboro, where I was essentially operating as a sick clinic doc.
