Medicine Congratulates 2016 Fellows

December 3rd was Fellowship Match Day, and we are thrilled to share our outstanding results. Each of our graduating residents that are going on to fellowship have matched at the most highly competitive programs throughout the country, including many that will stay with us at Northwestern to continue their training. Joining them here will be a stellar group of new additions to the McGaw family and we look forward to welcoming them on July 1st.  While we appreciate, and will fondly remember, the hard work of our trainees, we recognize that a great deal of their success is the result of faculty mentorship.  Thank you to all faculty for your support of our resident education and career development.
