ECU Brody School of Medicine students celebrate Match Day
GREENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT) — The ECU Brody School of Medicine celebrated Match Day for their incoming graduates. Before medical students can provide patient care they have to complete a residency.
For Lauren Nurrdin Pediatrics was a dream since she was three years old and that dream is turning into reality. Walking across the stage while her son, friends and family cheered from the stands proved that those close to her could not be more proud of the achievement.
'I'm going to into Pediatrics Bay care at Tampa, Florida. My family's in Tampa, so I'm so excited to be closer to them. I've known I wanted to be a pediatrician since I was a little girl. I really relate to kids. I'm a parent myself, so I relate to parents as well. And I just really. Inspired of the resilience of kids and just everything that they represent. I'm so excited for that part of their lives.' said Nurrdin.
'it feels like a dream realized. I've seen her persisting all her goals. Everything she said was gonna happen, came true. And today is just another stepping stone into the next chapter.' said Shaquille Nurrdin, Lauren's husband.
Students at Friday's event will be following their dreams and for Brody School staff it's the best day of the year.
