Why Memorial?
Having grown up in Karachi—a vibrant coastal city—I’ve always been drawn to the horizon. There’s something grounding and inspiring about living in a coastal town, where the ocean reminds you of both direction and possibility. Memorial gives me that same feeling. Its proximity to the coast brings a sense of familiarity and calm that feels like home.

Beyond the setting, Memorial stands out for its warm community, supportive faculty, and genuine southern collegiality. It’s a place where people look out for each other, where learning is encouraged, and where residents truly grow. For me, Memorial is not just a training program—it’s a place where I know I can belong, contribute, and thrive.

Why memorial?
Growing up in South Louisiana, I had always vacationed to the Gulfport area and dreamed of one day living here. The wonderful beaches, festivals throughout the year, all the wonderful small towns that dot the Mississippi coast, and the closeness to my hometown all encouraged me to choose Memorial as my #1 choice in ranking. When I performed an audition rotation here, all of the residents were incredibly kind, welcoming, and genuine. The attending physicians I had worked and continue to work with are nothing less than stellar, always engaging and encouraging me to perform at my best. Alongside this, the diverse patient population we see with an equally diverse range of pathology is always fascinating. I’m looking forward to continuing work here at Memorial and eventually establishing my practice in the area.

Why Memorial?

From the time I moved to Gulfport I knew this place would always be my home. I love being able to have the beach and country in the same area, along with cute downtown areas all within a 15 minute drive of one another. During COVID I worked as a multi-skilled tech at Memorial and knew this is where I wanted to be for training. The nurses, doctors, and other staff are second to none and made me feel at home, even in a tech role. The pathology I saw as a tech here was insane and that translated into my training as a resident! Within my first month of intern year I saw patients with Anti-MDA5 Dermatomyositis and Infective endocarditis with septic emboli and abscess to the brain. The attendings are absolutely phenomenal as well. I’m beyond pleased with the program and would choose it as my #1 in Match all over again. I am excited to begin my role here as an attending in July 💗🫶🏼

Why Memorial?
Being born in a coastal area, my first thoughts while watching my flight land near the beach, was this is THE place. Having excellent staff along with the friendliest Program Director was a no brainer for me to choose Memorial. After finishing one year I would definitely say choosing Memorial was one of my best decisions that I’m definitely proud of.
