Pulmonology

  • Observed inpatient and outpatient management of obstructive and restrictive lung disease including COPD and asthma exacerbations
  • Followed diagnostic workflows involving imaging review, pulmonary function testing, and oxygenation assessment
  • Gained insight into escalation of care decisions in respiratory compromise

Neonatology

  • Observed neonatal evaluation and management of premature newborns in post delivery settings
  • Exposure to APGAR scoring, respiratory stabilization, and early life clinical monitoring
  • Learned the importance of early intervention and continuous physiologic monitoring in determining long-term outcomes

Family Medicine

  • Observed longitudinal outpatient care focused on preventive health, chronic disease management, and patient counseling
  • Exposure to continuity-of-care models emphasizing adherence, screening, and lifestyle modification
  • Gained appreciation for sustained physician–patient relationships in improving long term outcomes

Internal Medicine

  • Shadowed inpatient teams managing complex multi-system disease and diagnostic uncertainty
  • Observed clinical reasoning in patients with comorbidities, polypharmacy, and evolving differential diagnoses
  • Developed understanding of structured diagnostic approaches and prioritization in medically complex cases

Neuropathology Research Intern

Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine
09.2023 - 07.2024
  • Investigated mechanisms of pain signaling and nerve degeneration in diabetic neuropathy
  • Contributed to data analysis and interpretation of clinical and experimental findings
  • Supported preparation and presentation of research posters at academic conferences
  • Developed experience translating biological mechanisms into clinically relevant research outcomes
