    I am particularly interested in PAD and lower extremity bypasses.
    Why UC San Diego?
    I had the fortunate experience of coming here for a rotation during residency, and seeing the complexity of cases and volume of patients the trainees here get to experience made ranking UC San Diego as #1 an easy choice for me.
    What do you like about San Diego?
    Coming from the Midwest, I am very excited to enjoy sunshine year-round and all the outdoor activities there are to enjoy here. Also, you can't forget about the excellent food.
