Ryan Nelson, MD, MS

  • PGY-3 Resident (Combined Anesthesiology-Pediatrics Program)

Hometown: San Juan Capistrano, California

Favorite aspects of our residency program: UPMC stood out to me because of its top-notch clinical training opportunities while having a genuinely kind and supportive atmosphere. As a combined pediatrics-anesthesiology resident, I get to learn from incredible mentors in both of these robust clinical training programs. The faculty, staff, and residents are extremely welcoming and Pittsburgh is a great city to live in!

Hobbies: Exploring new restaurants and breweries, mountain biking, swimming, camping, cooking

Post-residency plans: I'm planning to pursue fellowship in pediatric anesthesiology. I'm also interested in pediatric critical care and pediatric pain medicine.
