This episode is part of our specialty series, where we interview MS4 students about their experiences applying and matching into their chosen specialty. In this episode, we spoke with Dr. Elizabeth Belford, MD, who graduated from the Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine in May 2023. Elizabeth now is a first-year resident in Internal Medicine at the Medical University of South Carolina.
She reflects on her journey to Internal Medicine with us and shares valuable pieces of advice for medical students in various stages of training. Additionally, Elizabeth describes her decisions for choosing Internal Medicine and provides tips for how to wisely choose a specialty, crafting one’s narrative, and putting one’s best foot forward in the application process.
If you are interested in getting in touch with Elizabeth, you may reach her at @ElizabethMD15 or elizabeth.drews97@gmail.com.
