Pathology Trainee Wellness

The Cooper Pathology Residency Program wants to optimally support trainee wellness in all forms.

Our Goals

  • Enhance the meaning of being a physician, protect time with patients, minimize non-physician obligations, provide administrative support, provide progressive autonomy, and enhance professional relationships

Our annual recurring wellness activities include:

  • Two wellness days each academic year
  • Coffee with chair/vice-chair every month
  • Holiday party
