Resident Testimonials
Part of what makes the Tulane experience so unique is how protected the residents are in the department. While we have many valuable and talented CRNAs who we work alongside, our department allows us the opportunity to participate in some of the most challenging cases available each day. Residents perform all the neuraxial and regional anesthesia, central lines, and cardiac and liver transplant cases at Tulane. This experience helps us grow in our training and shows the staff’s trust and confidence in us to handle difficult and challenging cases.
Another valuable part is the protected time we are offered to study and prepare for boards. Most days we are out of the OR around 3 PM to have time to study and pre-op our patients for the following days cases.
My favorite part of my CA-1 experience to this point is the family environment we have at Tulane. From my co-residents to my faculty, I always find myself laughing or enjoying my time with whoever I am with. Our faculty members are truly invested in not only our education, but in us as people and take the time to get to know you. The residents of our program are really close, and you really get to know your colleagues. Overall, I have really enjoyed my experience at Tulane and wouldn’t trade it for anything else.
