Neil Poulsen, MD
Senior Fellow
Hometown: Brockville, Ontario, Canada
Medical School: St. George’s University
General Surgery Residency Program: Saint Barnabas Medical Center
What attracted you to our fellowship program?
I was drawn to CMC by the volume and complexity of the cases, the friendliness and reputation of the faculty and the personal touch of the staff on my interview day. I was also very impressed by the experience of the senior fellows and how comfortable they felt with all aspects of vascular surgery after completing training at this program.
What have you enjoyed most so far?
I have enjoyed the wide variety of surgical exposure, the autonomy granted and the willingness of all the faculty to teach no matter what the case. More than that there is a great team atmosphere amongst the fellows, faculty and all members of the vascular service.
What do you enjoy about living in Charlotte?
Charlotte has been an amazing city. My children have loved all the parks, pools, outdoor activities and sporting events that Charlotte has to offer. My wife and I feel like we have access to anything we could want including restaurants, shopping etc. that a big city offers while still preserving the small-town friendliness and safety.
