Undergraduate: University of Wisconsin – Madison
Medical School: University of Minnesota Medical School
Residency: University of Arizona College of Medicine – Phoenix
Career Interests: Addiction medicine, with a focus on underserved adolescents and those involved with the criminal justice system
Personal Interests: I love spending my free time outdoors hiking, camping, biking and kayaking (yes, there are lakes and rivers in AZ!)
Why UArizona College of Medicine – Phoenix: I chose the College of Medicine – Phoenix because of the strong sense of community I felt on my interview day. I also felt like there was both a strong pediatric and medicine component to the training and truly enjoyed all of my interviews with the faculty here. On top of that, I was excited by the opportunity to move to AZ to be close to the mountains for after-work hikes and adventures!

Carson Morley
Carson Morley, MD

Undergraduate: University of Utah
Medical School: University of Utah
Career Interests: Pediatric intensive care unit 
Personal Interests: Hiking, kayaking, skiing, AZ day trips — Sedona, Tucson, Jerome and, of course, the Grand Canyon are some of my favorites — board games, good food and drinks, and spending time with my amazing co-residents!
Why UArizona College of Medicine – Phoenix: I am originally from Utah, and I love the Southwest. Having grown up with family in the Phoenix area, I always loved spending time enjoying all that Arizona has to offer. I love national parks, hiking and being outdoors, so finding a residency with those opportunities was very important to me. The College of Medicine – Phoenix has provided me with a lot of opportunities to continue exploring these interests during my free time. Phoenix itself has a lot of activities, and we are merely a few hours drive from multiple national parks, mountains, skiing and even the ocean! Not to mention having an international airport 10 minutes from the hospital is super convenient. Our leadership and faculty are amazing, but I especially love all of my co-residents. I could feel the collegiality between the residents on my interview day and now being a part of the program myself I can attest to it personally!

The diverse clinical rotation sites allows you to truly create a residency experience that is educational, personal toward your interests, and overall enjoyable
