Is your spouse or partner in medical training or a practicing physician with an all-consuming schedule? Help us grow a local network of people who understand your unique lifestyle.


I decided to start this group for the spouses and significant others of medical residents, fellows and med students (and physicians) because my husband completed a 5-year residency in general surgery in June 2011 and started a 1-year fellowship. We moved from Minneapolis to Boston and will likely be moving again next year. So I know what it's like to have your social and personal life in complete disarray due to the unpredictable schedule of a partner who works 80+ hours a week. (Not to mention moving to a new city every couple years, trying to be supportive when your partner doesn't know when they're coming home many nights or if they'll be home at all...) Join us as we start a local network of people who could use some extra support during the training years and beyond!
