CURTIS MAEHARA, MD
"Growing up in Los Angeles, I always knew I wanted to come back home for residency after spending four years on the East Coast. LAC+USC has been everything I could have wanted and more in a program. The culture of LAC+USC was evident throughout my interview day and I am still amazed by the dedication and sincerity of residents and faculty. Residents genuinely enjoy spending time together in and out of the hospital. I am ecstatic to find that this has held true for my intern class. Even during these trying times, LAC+USC is a family looking out for one another which inspires me to continue to be the best physician I can each and every day."

“What drew me to LAC+USC was the unparalleled energy - the enthusiasm of the residents and faculty, the stimulating environment of a county hospital, and the collaborative and supportive culture rooted in serving the Los Angeles community. I am reassured each day I come to work that this is the best place to be training in Internal Medicine. We get to care for a diverse patient population, treat a vast spectrum of diseases, and learn from experts in every subspecialty. Not to mention creating lifelong friendships and enjoying the Southern California sunshine!”

"What I love about this program is the sense of community in our residency, the strong training, and teaching we receive through the diverse clinical pathologies we see every day on the wards, and having the privilege to serve and care for all members of our community, especially those who may not have opportunities to receive consistent healthcare outside of the hospital. I love being a part of the USC family and I know I will come out of it a more confident, compassionate, and exceptional-trained physician."

“Training at LAC+USC has been such an incredible privilege for me. Everyone should have access to quality healthcare and LAC+USC is working to make that a reality here in Los Angeles. Our patients welcome us as an integral part of the surrounding community. As residents, we see a broad diversity of clinical pathology and patient population which gives us fantastic hands-on learning opportunities. My co-residents all share a common passion for learning and healing, and I am inspired and humbled by their work. The culture here is supportive to its residents and staff, making it an excellent place to learn and grow as a physician.”

"From the start of my interview day at LAC+USC, I could feel the genuine enthusiasm, support, trust, and joy among the faculty and residents. I have since had the privilege of learning incredible medicine and compassion from our diverse and appreciative patients. Now, as a third year resident, I continue to find these amazing qualities in everyone I am lucky enough to connect with, and I am inspired every day to work my hardest for our LAC+USC community."
CESAR GONZALEZ, MD
“After attending USC for medical school and seeing the population that LAC+USC serves, it felt like home. We serve as a safety net hospital for the county of Los Angeles and treat the population most in need in our community. We are often the first physicians our patients see, which inherently leads to us managing rare pathologies but also creates a patient-physician bond that is palpable. The gratitude our patients express is always a great reminder as to why I have chosen to enter this field. For these reasons and more, I love training at LAC+USC.”
