Why I chose this program/location for my training

West Michigan Emergency Medicine Residency was the program that stuck out to me as the one with the best combination of high acuity, patient volume, and a supportive environment. I also love West Michigan for the year round outdoor activities, proximity to the lake and relaxed attitude.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

Travel. I have a goal to visit all the continents, making niche playlists, pina coladas and getting caught in the rain.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

West Michigan has been home to me for the last decade. When I was looking at emergency medicine residency programs, geographic location was really important for me to stay in West Michigan. Doing an audition rotation at Trinity Health Muskegon during my fourth year was the greatest influence on me for choosing this program. High-volume, sick population, and unopposed procedures were certainly high points, however, one of the greatest draws for me was seeing the mutual support and comradery amongst the residents.

As a medical student, I felt so welcome and included as part of the team, that I knew that this program would be a great fit for me to train at for the next four years.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

I spend most of my time with my family and church. I greatly enjoy most all outdoor activities.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

Walking away from my interview with this program, I knew it was “the one.” My decision was largely based on how I felt after that experience, but the program also had everything I was looking for: passionate educators, strong resident culture and camaraderie, a family-friendly attitude, procedural opportunities unopposed by anesthesia or surgical residents, an excellent EMR, exposure to a physician-owned EM group, and opportunities for moonlighting later on in training.

The Michigan outdoors and the opportunity to live in a lake town were also great motivators—and affordable housing (an extremely pleasant surprise in this location) made it all the more attractive. Choosing West Michigan as my #1 choice for emergency medicine has been the best decision I've made so far in medical training.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

Outside of work, I enjoy playing soccer, hiking, 3D printing/modeling and spending time with my wife and daughter.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

Muskegon and the surrounding areas have a lot to offer. The seasons are beautiful and there are many outdoor activities. The teaching staff at our residency is genuinely personable and focused on our needs as individual learners. We are more hands on with procedures as we are unimpeded by other residences in house.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

Emergency Medicine (EM) has been my goal since high school! Never knowing what/who is coming in the ED next, seeing all age ranges and a wide range of disease processes was why I fell in love with EM. I chose Trinity Health Muskegon because I wanted to maximize my learning with unopposed procedures, in a sick population, with a high volume ED. For that reason, the 4 years was a plus in my book.

I would rather be over-prepared than under!

Hobbies/interests outside of work

Anything outdoors! I love hiking, running, kayaking, rock climbing, etc. I also have an artistic side; I love painting, sketching and photography.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

I was looking for a program where I could really dive into my patient care. I didn’t want to simply train as someone that sits behind a computer and calls others to do my bidding. Trinity Health Muskegon, as it is an unopposed program, gives the opportunity to do all the procedures that you otherwise might have to hand off. I also felt right at home when I came for my audition rotation.

I made plans on making West Michigan my new home shortly after moving up here so from a life standpoint I am thrilled. Finally, the fact that this is a four year program makes me confident that I will leave here feeling confident that I will have the tools to tackle anything coming my way once I am on my own.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

I absolutely love to golf, which is both a blessing and a curse. I enjoy hiking and biking with my fiancee as well as exploring new areas in Michigan and checking more and more national parks off the list! Computer games are also a hobby of mine when I get some free time. I enjoy watching golf on television, Formula 1, and just going out for a drive on a nice windy road.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

I chose emergency medicine because I love the fast paced, ever-changing environment. I also love the ability to be able to perform procedures and the acuity of patient care.

Muskegon was my base hospital during my last two years of medical school, and I really enjoyed being there. I am from West Michigan and wanted to stay near family and friends. I also thought the patient population, interesting pathology and high volumes would provide me ample learning opportunities. The residents and physicians also made me feel welcome and a part of the team, which was really important to me.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

I enjoy traveling with my husband to new places, trying new recipes, new restaurants and craft beer. I also enjoy watching sports with friends and family.

Not knowing what challenges the next shift will bring keeps things interesting and motivates me to keep learning and refining my skills.

While on an EM Ultrasound rotation in Muskegon, I was impressed by the quality of education/experience the program provides and the comradery between the residents and attendings. I’m excited for the opportunity to train at an unopposed program with multiple clinical sites.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

I enjoy spending time outdoors with family and friends. I am an avid runner, snowboarder, surfer and ice climber. I’m excited to take advantage of the running and biking trails in West Michigan over the next few years and hope to get a few post-shift surf sessions in Lake Michigan as well.

Why I chose this program/location for my training

I grew up in Michigan and absolutely love the west side of the state. Grand Rapids is a short drive away and I’m close to some of the best beaches in the United States. I love Muskegon’s hospital environment, the interactions I have had with the physicians and staff, and I appreciate that the faculty is driven to create excellent emergency physicians.

At Trinity Health Muskegon, I get to work as an emergency medicine physician handling all manner of cases, performing procedures, and get to act as the team lead when running resuscitations. Most of all, I felt like it was the best fit for me. I chose emergency medicine because I love the variety of patients and disease states, the procedures, learning to predict the unpredictable and being able to learn from the different cases.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

Outside of work, I enjoy fishing, camping, flight simulation, leatherworking, woodworking, kiteboarding, snowboarding and piano.

I chose Emergency Medicine because every day is different and unexpected which I love. It also provides a great work/life balance. I chose Muskegon for my training because it really does have high volumes and varied pathologies which I got to witness as a base student.

I love that it is a four year program which allows for more EM experience and more sub-surgical specialty experience. The cherry on top is the amazing culture among the attending physicians and residents.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

I enjoy spending time with my husband and our two cats and dog. Our favorite thing to do is go overlanding in our 4runner and explore the hidden gems of Michigan. I also enjoy indoor and outdoor climbing as well as sewing and crocheting.

Training at both Trinity Health Muskegon and Trinity Health Grand Rapids, allowed for large variety of patient population. The high acuity pathology at both level II trauma centers allowed for a lot of critical care time and procedures.

Even as a student, I felt welcomed by all members of the emergency medicine team. The core faculty has a diverse training background and are genuinely interested in teaching.

I also want to continue doing medical mission trips; EM I think provides the best environment for that. West Michigan felt like home right away with family atmosphere that I mesh well with which was important with me. While having the opportunity to learn from a large variety of pathology, the bonus for me is location with beaches, snow and close to family.

Hobbies/interests outside of work

I have two Great Danes and love hanging out with them at the dog park or on the beach. I grew up riding horses and enjoy riding whenever I get free time.

I felt like it was the specialty that most embodied the skill of a physician.
