At Iowa, you are empowered and encouraged to pursue your own career goals whether that's private practice in a rural town or pursuit of NIH grants and an academic science career. We have residents interested in a lot of different things and none are more privileged above the others. The residents were all nice (still are!) and there was good camaraderie among the residents. There is a large and accomplished faculty with a diverse set of interests. It's a great place to train to become whatever kind of neurologist you want to become. 

I'm pursuing fellowship training in movement disorders and have a particular interest in providing patient-centered care for patients with neurodegenerative disease. I'm interested in incorporating neuropalliative care approaches in my practice. I'm undecided about exact practice setting but hope to be able to make care for patients with Parkinson's disease compassionate and empathetic.
