Last night, I graduated from the University of Washington’s neurology residency program. After four years of being on call, running back and forth from the ICU to the ER, giving talks, and honestly – having fun (did I just say that?) – residency is over. Well, unless one includes working next week and taking three more calls before June 30th. 
It’s hard to believe that, after a twelve year road, I’ve reached the end of my training. I’m thrilled to be staying on for the next year at Harborview as the stroke neurology fellow, to continue treating patients while devoting more time to reading, working on various projects, giving talks, writing papers, and transitioning further into that independent role as a practitioner.
Here’s to the next 30 years!
Congratulations, Dr Dodds! Keep having fun as you follow your dream.
That’s awesome!! Felicitations
Amazing, isn’t it? Congratulations! Right now I’m still so nervous about starting my own residency next year…Can’t wait for the day I can post about being done with it all.
