Residency Orientation & First Week as a Resident Doctor (AUDIO)

Join me as I reflect on my initial weeks of psychiatry residency, working with veterans and military personnel, and the importance of a supportive program that values wellness and human connection. I share my experiences transitioning to the VA, meeting new colleagues, engaging in diverse patient care, and learning innovative therapies. Connect with my journey, the challenges we face, and the importance of mental health in our profession. Discover insights on residency life, patient interactions, and maintaining wellness amidst a demanding schedule.
