Welcoming Our Inaugural Resident Class

There are moments that mark the beginning of something truly meaningful, and welcoming the first residents into our Ophthalmology Residency Program is one of them.

This inaugural resident class represents more than the start of a new academic year. It reflects our commitment to investing in the future of ophthalmology by training compassionate, skilled physicians who will go on to improve vision and transform lives in the communities they serve.

To celebrate the occasion, each resident was welcomed with a gift basket as they begin this exciting new chapter. While it's a small gesture, it symbolizes the support, encouragement, and sense of community we hope each resident feels throughout their training.
