Resident spotlight: Lauren McGill

Medical School: UNMC

Why did you choose the medical field? The medical field and the human body always fascinated me from a young age. As I got older, I saw the tremendous impact health care providers have on not just patients but their families, even in very tough circumstances.

What made you choose anesthesiology? I enjoy the fast-paced critical thinking anesthesiology requires, and I like building meaningful connections with my patients during the critical moments in their lives.

List three accomplishments you are proud of:

  • Matching into an amazing field at a great program.
  • I’m a proud auntie to three amazing girls.
  • I recently completed a medical Spanish course to build on my existing Spanish skills.

Three things about you that others may not know:

  • I rescued a mini dachshund named Hazel this spring and love dogs – I’d love to see pics of everyone’s pets.
  • I love baking and make my own sourdough.
  • Everyone always asks if I am related to Davy Crockett – I am.
