Interests & Hobbies

Adi like to spend time outside hiking, running or playing tennis. Adi also enjoys spending time with his fiancée who is a resident in pediatrics at the University of Utah.

Why Utah?

The neurosurgery program at Utah has a strong legacy in the field of neurosurgery with many current leaders in the field having trained at this program. Adi found that he would be to do whatever he wanted in this program whether it was related to complex cases or research that he wanted to complete. The best part is the comradery amongst the residents. It makes it fun to spend time working and learning from friends in the hospital
