[MUSIC] [Text on screen: The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center] [Text on screen: Michelle Moore Padilla, MD] Speaker Michelle Moore Padilla, MD: I chose to come to Ohio State for my residency training because I had the opportunity to visit as a fourth-year medical student. I wanted to get more experience with the adult congenital cardiology program here. [Video clip of two doctors greeting and examining a patient] Little did I know that I was going to be so impressed by just the overall staff support. [Video clip of two doctors using a whiteboard to study] I saw the medical students and I was like, "Wow, these medical students are great." There was so much collaboration between the residents, the attendings, the nurses—that, you know, that alone really impressed me. [Video clip of three doctors talking around a computer screen] [Text on screen: Philip Chang, MD] Speaker Philip Chang, MD: What's unique about our Med-Peds program, I think, is the opportunities for primary care. There were a lot of programs, you know, out there that are fantastic, too, but none of them that really rivaled the South High primary care team that we have. [Video clip of two doctors talking while walking down a hallway in a hospital] That gives us both that bread and butter primary care, as well as some of the more complicated cases you can get, both on the pediatric side as well as the adult side. [Text on screen: Roberta Gomez, MD] Speaker Roberta Gomez, MD: So, this program has one of the largest Med-Peds programs, so ten residents per class, and then we also have a large amount of categorical residents on both the internal medicine side and the Nationwide Children's side. [Image of Nationwide Children's Hospital] And then within each side of the program, we have several preliminary residents and then several dual training residents. [Video clips of doctors talking and using a stethoscopS] Specifically, at our primary care clinic, which is South High Primary Care Clinic, we get to see patients literally from birth, so newborn patients, all the way to—I have some 80 and 90-year-old continuity patients that I get to see. And some of these patients are straightforward peds patients and some are straightforward internal medicine patients. And then we also have the opportunity to get a lot of the hodgepodge or transitioning or complex patients, and so it's really nice. Colleagues on both sides, kind of, recognize South High as that transition or complex care place to send people. Speaker Chang, MD: We have a population, especially, that's growing in cystic fibrosis as well as sickle cell, that I think really does benefit from having two high powered programs, both on the adult side and the children's side. [Video clip of doctor showing an ultrasound to a patient] We have a lot of electives that we can choose as Med-Peds residents to try and get a little more clinic work, especially in the outpatient side, but also consults on the nationwide children side to be able to see some of those older patients that might benefit from both the pediatric touch as well as the adult medicine side. [Images of doctors talking] [Aerial video clip of OSU's Wexner Medical Center] Speaker Gomez, MD: I definitely feel that Ohio State's Med-Peds program is geared towards getting the residents where they ultimately want to go because a lot of people have the misconception that to do Med-Peds, you have to do something in the transition population or like a subspecialty like congenital heart disease that kind of spans across. [Video clips of doctors around the hospital] For me, I really want to do sickle cell, specifically working with the transition population, but what a lot of people don't know is that a lot of people just go into primary care or they do hospitals, and then a bunch of other people do fellowship training as well. And so, I feel like Ohio State's program is really geared towards getting residents to be open-minded. We have a lot of different rotations that we do within our first two years, and then our second two years, we have a lot more opportunity to explore our different interests, meet mentors who are able to help us, kind of, differentiate what we like and what we don't like. Speaker Padilla, MD: From The Ohio State University side, I would say that one of my favorite rotations was the CHF service, which is the congestive heart failure service. I really enjoyed working with that patient population and the fact that it was so diverse. I saw young people with dilated cardiomyopathies and people who had ventricular assist devices, and those were things that I was never exposed to prior to coming here. [Various video clips of the city of Columbus including views of OSU's campus, Columbus restaurants, theater productions, and city skyline scenes] Speaker Chang, MD: I think that Columbus is the perfect combination in the sense that you get a lot of the big city things in a small-town feel, so everyone's really friendly and everyone really helps you, kind of, get along, especially if you're new. I really think there's a great scene for food, as well as great scene for art. [Various video clips of Columbus art and music] Speaker Padilla, MD: Some of the things that I really enjoy about Columbus is all the events and festivals that occur during the summer, from cultural festivals to music festivals. I'm a big foodie, and I love ethnic foods. I was really pleasantly surprised by the amount of, just, diversity in the ethnic foods that are available. [Video clip of OSU's Wexner Medical Center and Nationwide Children's Hospital] I think one of the best decisions I made was to choose Ohio State and Nationwide Children's as a residency program for training, and not only that, the hospitality here is great, people are very supportive, residents on both sides are very supportive, and Columbus is a really nice city to live in. [Aerial video of Columbus] Speaker Chang, MD: I think, in terms of the residency program that we have here, the best thing is the people. [Various group photos of OSU residents] I've seen so many different programs from across the country in terms of Med-Peds, that there's never been a place that really encompassed all of the support from both an attending standpoint, resident standpoint, and staff standpoint that Ohio State and Nationwide Children's had offered us. I think it makes it easy to be a resident when you have so much help.
