About Me
About me: My name is Nick Aizcorbe and I've lived in the South my entire life. I went to a small private college called Wofford College in the upstate of South Carolina and proceeded to Medical School at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). I stayed for Pediatric Residency training at MUSC. I have known since medical school that I wanted to be a Pediatric Cardiologist and I'm excited about the opportunity to get one step closer to my goal.
Medical Areas of Interest: Cardiac Intensive Care, Cross Sectional Imaging
Interests/hobbies: Soccer, hiking, climbing, golf
Why Utah: Prior to applying for Cardiology Fellowship, I thought of Utah as an interesting place to explore but had never considered moving here. After doing some research into the program, I discovered that it’s a high volume surgical center with complex congenital heart disease and, equally as importantly, a healthy program culture. Finding a balance of academic/clinical excellence and a healthy place to work can be difficult in medicine but this program does it well. Living so close to beautiful mountains and awesome places to explore out West doesn't hurt either.
