Meet the New PM&R Residents and Interns
As our program has shifted to nine categorical residents (previously six categorical/three advanced) starting this 2026-2027 academic year, we welcomed nine new PGY-1s. We also welcome our last three advanced PGY-2 residents: Jacob James, Eric Pinkston, and Mary O’Connor. Last but not least, we welcome Olivia Tincher, who is joining us from the Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center PM&R Residency Program as a PGY-4.
We are glad to have these 13 new faces joining our program!
