Lindsey Retterath, MD - Chief Resident

Where are you from?

Grand Rapids, MI

What are your personal interests/hobbies?

I’m an equal opportunity (and amateur) outdoor adventurer: hiking, rock climbing, trail running, camping.

What are your professional interests?

Pediatric Emergency Medicine, border health

Why did you choose UA EM?

I came here as a 4th year med student interested in the Peds-EM program and was blown away by how smart, supportive, and enjoyable the residents and faculty were at this program.

Favorite activity in Tucson?

There are a lot of good, affordable yoga studios and going to classes is my favorite after work activity. When I have a day off, hands down hiking/camping is a favorite, and there are great areas to explore all around Tucson.

What are your non-medical goals during residency?

To build lasting friendships, keep (generally) healthy habits, and take advantage of living in the Southwest!
