| Paul Paulman, M.D. |
Below Dr. Paulman shares a memory from his time at UNMC.
While I was attending a state meeting of our specialty society, I had a chance to speak to one of our residency graduates who is practicing very successfully in a rural underserved community in Nebraska.
He told me that I had been a positive influence during his medical school and residency regarding his choosing an underserved rural community for practice and staying there.
It felt very good to know that my actions had a positive influence on someone I admired greatly for his work serving the citizens of Nebraska.
