  • Muhammad Abdullah (Private Practice in Texas)
    “A decent balance of education, work and life. Yes, it’s possible even in fellowship here at UTHSCSA. Joining fellowship after working as hospitalist for a few years, my biggest concern was whether I will have enough time for children and family, but experience has been nothing but wonderful. I have been able to spend time not only with my family but able to volunteer in the community as well. Most of all, you are treated as colleagues and friends by the faculty.”
