Second Annual Radiology Residency Retreat

Resident Update | Alison Esteva, MD and Jonathan Levine, MD, Chief Residents

The second annual Radiology Residency Retreat held on February 10, 2023 at WhirlyBall was an enormous success! The retreat featured an inspiring presentation by guest speaker Dr. Richard Gunderman, who discussed leadership and compassion in the field of radiology. Wellness was an engaging topic for the group. Together they completed an important activity entitled "Where do I stand?" During this time, residents contemplated assorted topics in leadership ranging from conflict resolution to the energizing benefits of coffee and naps. Everyone participating was invited to form their own stances to carry forward in the program.

In addition to the guest speaker and group work, residents got to have some fun including the creation of a spaghetti tower, bowling, and playing WhirlyBall. The event was capped off with time for reflection and an inspiring collective message from radiology faculty. The residents would like to thank the faculty and department leadership for supporting the residency wellness retreat, and we look forward to continuing this tradition in the coming years.
