Scrubs, Sweat, and Solidarity: Making Friends in Residency

Welcome to MedPage Today‘s “White Coat Chronicles,” a short-form feature series where we follow Emilie “Mia” Mathura, DO, MSPH, during her first year of residency in ob/gyn.

Friendship during residency is a lifeline. This week, Mathura shares the importance of having people you can rely on.

Mathura (a.k.a. “Dr. M”) is an ob/gyn resident at a university program in the Southeast U.S. She is passionate about the surgical aspects of ob/gyn and public health research. When she isn’t in the hospital, you can catch her on the dance floor of the nearest salsa dancing event.
