Summary
- I finished my chief resident in general surgery year at Keesler Air Force Base, MS, and moved to NOLA and re-started the fellowship in Cardiovascular and Thoracic Surgery at Ochsner Clinic as the first graduate since the Katrina years. I start my 4 year active duty commitment at Keesler Air Force Base with plans to affiliate with Singing River Health System to provide the full spectrum of adult cardiothoracic surgical services.
