UC San Diego Resident Graduation in La Jolla, CA

University of California, San Diego
By Daniel Lee, MD, PhD
We would like to congratulate our 2019 graduates who
all went on to outstanding private practice, academic
positions and top fellowships across the country, from
San Diego to Palo Alto to Boston, in pain medicine,
cardiothoracic anesthesia, critical care, and regional
anesthesia. Half of our graduates went on to fellowship
training, with the remainder going to private practice
and academic medicine from Hawaii to San Diego and
the San Francisco Bay Area.
This year, our education program has continued mental
health and wellness onboarding for CA-1s, spearheaded
by our Wellness Director Byron Fergerson, MD. The
curriculum included didactics, facilitated discussions,
and guest faculty discussing their own difficult clinical

events. We're also in our second year of Resident
Education Days, where each class is free from clinical
duties one weekday each month for education and
wellness activities. These days have been valuable for
developing camaraderie and staying connected, as well
as more directed learning experiences tailored to each
class's needs. Simulator sessions, OSCE and oral exam
practice sessions, point-of-care ultrasound training, and
high-yield didactics all fit into these education days,
which have been a very popular and valuable addition to
our residency.
Our residents have had a unique opportunity this
year to take a 'Mini-MBA' course spearheaded by the
UCSD Rady School of Management. An internist and
