Why this program: Miami Valley Hospital, a level I Trauma, Comprehensive Stroke, and Burn center, provides the highest care for patients surrounding the Dayton area. The program offers a variety of rotations including Neurocritical care, cardiology, and hematology/oncology.  Additionally, the opportunity to elect to advanced training in areas such as emergency medicine and in critical care as electives will ultimately assist me in my future career goals.   My desire to pursue a career in critical care or emergency medicine made Miami Valley an excellent place to learn and practice at the top of my license.
