Congratulations on your Residency Matches, Class of 2020!!


A huge congratulations to the Class of 2020 for matching to their residencies!! We are exceptionally proud of our students! This match day saw a record-high number of applicants matching to first-year residency positions, over 32,000! These are extraordinary times, and though the Match Day celebration was virtual, the joy of these celebrating medical students was unmistakable! 


Many of our Promise Clinic Student Doctors and Steering Committee members hit this milestone at home, surrounded by family, partners, and friends. Four years earlier, these classmates walked into Eric B. Chandler for the first time as wide-eyed and inexperienced M1s, and now they walk out into the world with confidence, competence, and compassion as newly-minted physicians. We have loved watching their journey and seeing the impact they had on their peers, their patients, and the community of New Brunswick.


Thank you all for dedicating a part of your four years in medical school to Promise Clinic. We are excited to follow you on this new adventure and see what bright and inspiring change you will bring to this world!

TotW: Team 39!


This week, meet team 39! The energy that this group of student doctors bring to clinic on Thursdays truly makes it a pleasure to work with them! We can't wait to see what great things they accomplish as a team for their patients, and as physicians in their future careers! 





1. What soothes your spirit when you're in an unhappy or bad mood?
Danielle: Friends, food, tea, and yoga!
Melissa: Chocolate...and being with family and friends!
Miriam: My dog Sasha soothes my spirit.Taking her for a walk, playing with her, or just hanging out with her, is definitely a huge comfort!



2. What is the one small or big thing you're looking forward to his summer?
Danielle: Finding a new hobby or craft.
Melissa: Traveling!
Miriam: One big thing I’m looking forward to this summer is getting to take my week of vacation after being done with third year!



3. What is the best thing you have ever cooked?
Danielle:  Breakfast soufflés! 
Melissa: I’m not really a great cook, but I can bake...does that count? If it does, coffee cake or chocolate chip cookies.
Miriam: You asked what is the best thing I’ve ever cooked, but I think it’s a more honest answer to say the best thing I’ve ever tasted that someone else has cooked is lamb chops cooked to perfection.
