I am helping med students starting residency with their moving costs.

Email me at [email protected] with your name, med school, new residency program (a copy of your match letter would be helpful), and if you’re experiencing any financial hardship (student loans).

This is my dear friend, Nakita.

Nakita and I were medical school classmates and both interns in New York City. Nakita tragically took her own life on May 26.

She is such a beautiful soul. She was so fun to be around. She was intelligent, charismatic, and confident. (1/x)

We HAVE to collectively fix this systemic problem. Not enough attention paid to the 'I' in DEI! Only ~5% of the surgical residents, but >20% of the residents dismissed It's not a mere coincidence. We CAN and MUST do better! Society of Black Academic Surgeons American Board of Surgery
