I chose Wilmington for its robust inpatient training, its diverse and dynamic patient population, and the warmth and beauty of the community. From the moment I got to know the program, I could picture myself growing into a confident, well-rounded psychiatrist here.Jenna Cormier, MD, Psychiatry Resident, PGY-2
Choosing [this program] was an easy decision, primarily due to the unique training opportunity offered by its combined civilian-military psychiatry program... every single person I met during my audition rotation was so friendly and welcoming that it immediately made me feel at home.Kimberly Dodd, MD, Psychiatry Resident, PGY-2
This is one of the most unique, comprehensive training experiences in all of psychiatry. The combined military-civilian partnership allows us to see a wide range of psychopathology across multiple environments and health systems to truly have an all-encompassing education and build our confidence.Lt. Andrew Greenhalgh, MD, Psychiatry Resident, PGY-3
I felt a very welcoming atmosphere the moment I met my new community in the healthcare system. Having that positive work environment means a lot to me.Bassam Shawamreh, MD, Psychiatry Resident, PGY-2
I’m excited for the opportunity to train in a strong clinical environment while serving a diverse patient population. I’m especially interested in working with the military community at Camp Lejeune. I also appreciate the setting that supports both professional growth and life outside of medicine.Allen Xu, DO, Psychiatry Resident, PGY-1
