Changing the World…

If you have read the Tulane Mission Statement, you know that the Tulane Team is about much more than simply moving from career point A to career point B. Tulane is about changing the world… one person at a time. We believe in those who the rest of society rejects… we inspire trust, empowerment, and reengagement in our sanctuaries of hope. And in doing so, the Tulane resident finds great fulfillment. And with that fulfillment, comes great energy,  great happiness, and great focus. These are the requisite ingredients to becoming great in any endeavor . While it's not the reason we do it, there is a justice that comes with it all. Tulane residents are great in their many career endeavors not just because they are great physicians, but because they are great people.

But our devotion to changing the world extends outside of the walls of the hospital… in New Orleans, in Louisiana, in these United States, and around the world. The photos below are only a microcosm of the effect the Tulane residents have on our world. As a program director, it is the virtue of which I am most proud. While service to the community is not required (that would be antithetical to the spirit), it is a predominate feature of our resident team…. there is no residency program in the country that invests as much time in its community as the Tulane Team.
