Why Pitt?
I was drawn to UPMC for the opportunity to learn the full breadth of microsurgical and complex reconstruction in an incredibly collaborative and collegial environment. The faculty are world renowned experts and heavily invested in the personal and professional growth of each fellow, and I look forward to being a part of the Pitt legacy.
