How do you end a long hard day at work?

I like to reflect on the things I did well and things I didn’t do well and learn from them in a positive way. Then I would go to the gym and end the day watching New Girl or Schitt’s Creek.

What is the best part about the Ortho residency at OU?

The people. The atmosphere here is the perfect balance of hard work, learning/teaching, and enjoying what we do. There are high standards but being surrounded by people that want each other to succeed makes this a special place.

What has been your biggest adjustment since starting residency?

My largest adjustment since starting residency has been learning to leave medicine at the hospital. Learning how to navigate a work/life balance is something that I’m still working on but makes work more rewarding when my life is balanced appropriately. Thankfully, my wife and co-resident’s families are always planning fun outside of work activities and events.

A Program Look

What do you consider to be your top priority during residency?

My top priority when choosing a residency program was making sure that I would be trained appropriately whenever I finished residency. This means having the breadth and depth of knowledge of orthopedics that would set me up for success. OU’s orthopedic surgery program showed me very quickly as a medical student that graduating residents were extremely capable and prepared in the clinic and ORs.

How long do you think you’d survive in a zombie apocalypse?

If it was like the Walking Dead type zombies, I’d give my self a solid year or two but I do know if I could make it last 11 seasons like the show has.

What is one orthopedic area all physicians should be aware of, regardless of specialty or subspecialty?
In concern for a traumatic injury/fracture, never hesitate to order an XR!
What is your favorite weekend getaway?
I love to get outdoors when we have the chance. Our favorite weekend getaways have been going to the lake, skiing in Colorado, and hiking in the Ozarks.
What food do you wish had zero calories?
My wife makes an incredible chocolate bundt cake that can be dangerous.

What have you enjoyed most about residency?

The camaraderie and friendships you develop in this program are unique. The lifelong bonds formed with co-residents is easily my favorite part.

What are you looking forward to doing during residency?

Having only a year left, I am looking forward to creating as many memories with my class as possible.

What is your favorite OU Ortho tradition?

Our program has a long tradition of having the core of training being in Resident led teams (currently our Trauma and Peds services). This allows for a strong sense of community as well as an emphasis on resident-to-resident education.

What has surprised you most about Oklahoma?

OKC is a great place to live! Moving here from Austin, I was impressed with the quality and accessibility of amenities. Almost no traffic and you can actually afford to live here as a resident!

What hidden benefit of Oklahoma have you enjoyed?

The climate, most people don't think of Oklahoma as a nice climate, but our family spends a ton of time outside. Apart from August and January, there are generally around 10 months a year where you can be outside comfortably!

What has become your favorite place to dine or hang out?

Frida Southwest is my favorite restaurant in the city but there is always somewhere new to try!

What is something you enjoy doing in your spare time?

If I am not working, you will find me spending time with my wife and children, the OKC zoo and the numerous public parks are staples.

What is your favorite season?

Anytime when the temperature is between 50-80 degrees.

If you could visit any place in the world, where would it be?

I studied abroad in Spain during college and have been wanting to go back since!

What would you do if you could live forever?

Which member of the OU faculty would be your first choice to work with on a tough call night, and why?

• Dang, this is a tough question to answer. I haven’t gotten to work with all of the faculty yet, and the ones I have worked with have all been great. However, if I had to choose I’d probably say Dr. Agrawal. He is an awesome teacher, is really fun to be around, and let me get my hands dirty in the OR even during my first month as an intern.

What has been your favorite thing about living in Oklahoma?

• We’ve really enjoyed living in OKC so far. We love taking our dog down to the farmer’s market at Scissortail Park and have been impressed by the numerous great restaurants OKC has to offer. However, our favorite place in Oklahoma so far has probably been the Wichita Mountains near Lawton.

If you could have a superpower, what would it be?

- Teleportation. I’m extremely impatient.
