Xiomara P. Urban M.D. is currently a PGY-III in the General Psychiatry Residency program at Albany Medical Center. She has successfully matched in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at UCSF, and will be starting there in July 2019. At work, she is notable for her enthusiasm, and playful curiosity. This tends to manifest itself with unexpected compliments, and sporadic investigations into changes in their grooming habits. She brings this same energy and inquisitiveness to all her patients regardless of age. Her main interest is in effecting systems of care in order to better serve those they are designed for.
Originally, I wasn’t going to enter the fellowship match. I had started my psychiatry residency fully intending to do the four years, then maybe a fellowship. Then, in my second year while sharing dinner with friends who had just certified lists for the general residency match, my plans to go into child and adolescent psychiatry came up.
