Lovely short film about the resident match by Dr. Trisha Pasricha

Here's a charming and insightful 11 minute video by the remarkable physician-filmmaker Dr. Trisha Pasricha, about the experience of going through the residency match run each year by the National Residency Matching Program (NRMP). It includes some bits of an interview that Dr. Pasricha conducted with me.


A PERFECT MATCH: The Selection Ritual to Become A Doctor from Trisha Pasricha on Vimeo.


Here's a link on the NRMP web page:
Documentary “A Perfect Match” Follows Student Through The Match Process
"Directed by Dr. Trisha Pasricha (Massachusetts General Hospital) and produced by Dr. Michael Pilla (Vanderbilt University School of Medicine), A Perfect Match: The Selection Ritual to Become a Doctor follows a Vanderbilt University School of Medicine student as he experiences the medical residency match process. The 12 minute film was a finalist at the Nashville Film Festival,

Dr. Pasricha graduated from Harvard University with a B.A. in film production and went on to study at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine. She completed an internal medicine residency at Johns Hopkins and is currently a first-year gastroenterology fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital.."

And here's the direct link on vimeo.

Perhaps I'll get a chance to chat with Dr. Pasricha again after she goes through the gastroenterology match.
