Yazeed Sweedan, MD

Medical School: Jordan University of Science and Technology.

Hometown: Amman, Jordan.

Why Conemaugh: Two qualities that Conemaugh and I value highly in a residency program are support and comfort. Conemaugh’s supportive structure encourages requesting for help, as well as providing it. Johnstown’s suburban environment emphasizes inexpensive yet comfortable living. Together, these two qualities aid in easing the transition from medical school to residency. They also allow for more attention to be centered on training to practice independently.

Medical Interests: Thyroid disorders, Systemic lupus erythematosus, and Schizophrenia.

Personal Goals: Read, listen to, and experience as many new stories as I possibly can.

Interesting Fact: I beat Ornstein, Smough, Ludwig, Lorian, Lothric, and Isshin on NG+3.
