A busy Saturday with our Chair, Dr. Kirsner! 👏

From clinic to the community, the day was full of collaboration and patient care. Dr. Kirsner spent the morning in clinic with Dr. Lin, followed by hospital rounds with Dr. Penna and our international fellow. The day wrapped up at a community health fair alongside Dr. Ju, continuing our department’s commitment to service beyond the clinic walls.

Our team is always working to care for patients, train the next generation, and support our community. 💙
