Moving from Oregon during a pandemic was tricky. Considering that my wife and I never toured the building or even the neighborhood we now live in ahead of time, we are so happy with our decision. We live in the southern part of south loop, right in the middle of a triangle created by Grant park, the lakefront path and Chinatown. The access to outdoor areas, cultural diversity, and convenient commute are all reasons we love the South Loop.
Here is a collection of some of our favorite spots within walking/running distance of our place:

#theACMCdifference:
Diverse patient population, 1:1 Attending/resident teams, responsive leadership that values their residents’ wellbeing, and only one training site that has enough acuity and volume to offer a well rounded training experience under one roof. This program is OLLLLDDD so alumni are everywhere and have done everything. If you have fellowship or career aspirations that are competitive, the versatility of this program allows you to create a niche for yourself to get where you want to go.”
