Sean Barnett, DO
Fellow - Third Year
Personal Statement:
I am a Nephrology / Critical Care fellow with the exact combo of personalities that suggests. I have always wanted to do Nephrology, but my favorite parts are the hemodynamics and understanding attached, the acid / base balances, and the fluid balances. I also (someday) want to do a Hospice/Palliative Care fellowship. I am usually a bit too energetic and/or talkative but I am also never offended when someone tells me to shut up. At work, I prefer a good balance of professional, funny, compassionate, silly, dedicated, and stubborn. For fun I am an avid football, basketball, volleyball, and soccer player as well as viewer. I also enjoy anything outdoors and anything in the water.
