Some of our faculty and fellows were part of nearly 400 pediatricians who spent the weekend in D.C. for the National advocacy conference. The event also included a visit to Capitol Hill to speak with members of Congress about the importance of ensuring all our children can get the health care they need.

We can't put into words how lucky we are to have Dr. Porter on our team. You truly are a Health Care Hero!

"What is your most memorable, career-defining moment?"

"My most memorable, career-defining moment was watching one of my mentees receive her residency match results.

Helping others achieve their career goals through mentoring creates a ripple effect. Hopefully, they will do the same for those who come after them."
