It was party time on March 17, and not just for St. Patrick's Day.
The Match Day soirée returned for fourth-year medical students at the University of Louisville, and it was a successful day for the UofL Internal Medicine Residency and Combined Internal Medicine-Pediatrics Residency programs.
"I am absolutely thrilled by the results of this year's match," Jennifer Olges, M.D., director of the UofL Internal Medicine Residency Program said. "This intern class is made up of some of the best and brightest rising internal medicine physicians. We are excited that they are joining the University of Louisville, and we can’t wait to start working with them."
Laura Workman, M.D., director of the Combined Internal Medicine-Pediatrics Residency Program, added, "Med-Peds is so excited to welcome our new intern class. They are an outstanding group and we look forward to working with them over the next four years!"
The highlight of Match Day is when prospective medical residents open their envelopes from the National Residency Match Program to find where they had been matched for their future training as residents.
Conducted annually by the NRMP, The Match uses a computerized algorithm designed to the best results by aligning the preferences of applicants with the preferences of residency programs. The results are used to fill thousands of training positions available in the United States.
"I want to extend a sincere thank you to all of the faculty, staff, and residents who helped us recruit this talented class," Olges said.
