I have wanted to be a doctor since I was sixteen. Now I am completing my fourth and final year as a resident at the University of Cincinnati in the Internal Medicine/ Pediatric program. Below are links that helped me survive residency. With more and more information out there, it's important that attendings, residents, medical students and those practicing in the community take full advantage of the Internet.

This site is especially for residents/ postgraduate students. As a fourth-year Med/Peds I have finally got some time away from the hospital. I can once again see the sun and hear the birds chirping and more often find myself sleeping in my own bed beside my husband instead of a drafty call room. With the extra time I have developed this site so that when I go back to the hospital my favorite resources on the web are more readily available. I hope you find these links as useful to you as they have been to me. If any links are broken or you know of some other great sites please e-mail me and let me know.
