I gained exposure to patients from diverse cultures and backgrounds as well as myriad disease presentations. As an aspiring fellow, I'm hoping to grow as a teacher and researcher.

Research the fellowship program and the institution itself before the interview. Some online research will give you insight into the mission and values of the organization, the curriculum of the program, and what avenues past fellows have pursued after their training.
