Dr. Rani Chudasama
Medical School: Boston University School of Medicine
Residency: Boston University/Boston Medical Center“The comradery and mentorship I have experienced at Brown has been exceptional. From day one, I felt comfortable being here and a part of something bigger. My favorite part of our program is that us fellows have our own patient panel that we get to care for and follow for our entire fellowship. It has truly made me love being an oncologist. Also, the seafood here is REALLY good.”

Residency: Brown University/Rhode Island Hospital
Chief Residency: Brown University/Rhode Island Hospital“I had the privilege of completing my training in Internal Medicine at Brown. As a resident here I found a culture of caring and educational mentorship coupled with a fantastic group and resident and faculty support. My exposure to the Heme/Onc department during this time reflected a similar program, one dedicated to educating fantastic clinicians in an environment of support and comradery. In my first year of training as a fellow I have felt this and more, discovering an even greater commitment to research and mentorship than I was previously aware.”

On my interview day, all my expectations were met and surpassed. I had a strong sense of belonging. I was captured by the genuine warmth and collegiality. Such a welcoming and inviting atmosphere would definitely nurture a productive, supportive and friendly work and learning environment. I have been looking for a fellowship program that encourages both personal and professional growth and I found that at Brown. I have been inspired by how dedicated and keen the faculty are on offering mentorship, support, and guidance to the fellows. I have found that the program provided a well-rounded curriculum that offered not only a robust, comprehensive, and multidisciplinary training opportunity, but has also been tailored to meet each fellow’s career goals. I am elated and honored to be joining such an outstanding and brilliant team of hematology-oncology fellows at Brown.”
