Residency News

Our residency program’s Recruitment and Selection Committee (chaired by Patrick J. Forte, MD) announced that Drs. Phil Carullo, Chelsey Woodrum, and Steven Bartels will serve as our Chief Residents for the 2018-2019 academic year.

This was an extremely strong year, with 15 of our top 30 candidates choosing to match with us. These included nine students from the Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) Honor Medical Society, designating them as top medical students within their respective schools.

For the first time, our physicians and CRNAs united to celebrate both National CRNA Week and National Physician Anesthesiologists Week by supporting a charity event to raise awareness of the opioid epidemic and raise funds for Light of Life Rescue Mission, an organization that helps homeless people and those who often suffer from addiction.

The article “Health care providers unite for opioid event” published in the January 15, 2018 edition of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette spotlights the charity event “Medical Providers Against Opiate Addiction” being organized by our resident physician Philip Carullo, MD.
