Starting our Intern Spotlight off with
Dr. David Arruda Furtado Carneiro!

MED SCHOOL:
State a University of Campinas

HOME TOWN:
São Paulo (an 22 million people city - the largest in the Americas). Best thing about my city is it diverse and amazing food.

WHY UMKC:
This is an incredibly supportive program committed to resident wellbeing and learning. Attendings and fellow residents are friendly. I am sure I will be graduating as very prepared Family physician. Furthermore Kansas City is the best city to live of all I have been in the USA (and I have been in quite a lot of places). I highly reccommend my program and I truly wouldn’t be anywhere else.

CLINICAL INTERESTS:
I am very open to to different opportunities and settings in FM. At this time, I am inclined to continue in house in the sports medicine or FM-OB fellowships.

CAFFEINE OF CHOICE:
Coffee! As a Brazilian I am very picky about my grains and I need to drink 1L first thing in the morning in order to be a functional human being.
