Quotes from our Residents

“When I was applying for pediatric residency programs, I knew that I wanted to train at a place that emphasized community and advocacy for the families that we serve. On my interview day, I fell in love with Cincinnati Children's because of those values, and my passion for healthcare has been affirmed every day that I have had the pleasure of working at this institution. We are providing holistic, compassionate care for children and their families, whether that be in the multidisciplinary outpatient offices or inpatient settings. As a residency program, we are developing meaningful relationships with patients and each other as colleagues. Our large group is a family, and my co-residents have been so supportive and encouraging each and every day. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to learn, grow, and experience endless joy at Cincinnati Children's!" - Elizabeth Walton, MD, Categorical Pediatric Resident

“When I first matched at Cincinnati Children’s, I was nervous what it would look like working in such a large hospital with so many residents. I quickly discovered that my co-residents are one of my strongest support systems. Everyone always looks out for one another, ready to help out, both at work and in life. No matter where you are in the hospital, there are always familiar faces walking the halls. The training has also been fantastic because we see complex patients, diverse pathology, and we have mentors who are passionate about our education. I’m so happy to be in Cincinnati!” - Megan Kilian, MD, Categorical Pediatric Resident
