Finding My Home in AMDA: Experiencing the Foundation Futures Program

Little did I know that the Foundation Futures Program would become the architect of my career in geriatrics. By the time I was three quarters of the way into my geriatrics fellowship, I was beginning to feel the isolating effects of tackling the challenges that come with serving our geriatric population. I spent countless hours buried in patient documentation, as I tried to understand my patients and come up with a plan for their care. I felt alone and empty, and was beginning to lose sight of my purpose.
