Meet Chief Resident Dr. Vidhya Balasubramanian. She answers the question: What is the best part of training at Emory EM? "Grady, Grady, Grady. Training at Emory Emergency Medicine means caring for one of the most vulnerable patient populations in the country at a true safety-net hospital. You practice emergency medicine in its purest form—high acuity, limited resources, and enormous need—and you do it alongside an interdisciplinary team of nurses, pharmacists, techs, social workers, and attendings who are deeply committed to the same mission. It’s intense, humbling, and sometimes exhausting, but it’s also incredibly meaningful and the reason many of us chose emergency medicine in the first place."
Happy New Year from the Emory EM Team
