Farewell dinner for our graduating seniors with Dr. Syn & Dr. Cheesman. We will miss this class more than we can imagine. Wishing them the best as they prepare for their the next chapter. ⌛️

We did it! 🎉 👩‍🎓 GI fellowship ✅ Thankful for these wonderful cofellows and SLU Gastroenterology & Hepatology for 3 great years! Can’t believe it’s come to an end but so excited for what’s to come for us all #GIfellowship

To the great Wissam Kiwan M.D., our group didn’t always agree on things, but when asked who we wanted to present this award to, it was the easiest decision we ever had to make! We were so lucky to be able to learn from you, and hope to continue learning from you for years to come!

And at last, after 20 years of schooling and another 6 years of training, I can finally say that I am done! Could not have done it without the most incredible co-fellows who have become family! Although I will miss you guys greatly, I know this bond will never break!

A final lunch with Dr. Mike Giacaman! What an honor it has been to train with a man who has an award named after him!🌟 Thank you for all of your great lessons, always taking us out to lunch, cooking for us (Giac Guac & lemon blueberry cakes🎂), & always reminding us to #LookUp

Congratulations to our outstanding Class of 2024 for maintaining our incredible 20+ year streak of a 100% pass rate on the GI boards! Your hard work and dedication have truly paid off. Well done!
