At UNC, we believe that collegiality becomes more than a talking point when coupled with respect, humility, and shared values \u2013 values that include a focus on open community, support for resident autonomy, and the belief that every patient deserves the absolute best care.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Shared respect and open community, not hierarchy:<\/strong>\u00a0Faculty members work alongside our residents to provide patient-focused care to the people of our state. The resident voice is respected in patient care and is key to every change we make within the program.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resident autonomy:<\/strong>\u00a0We believe strongly that resident autonomy grows in a clinically challenging and rigorous yet supportive environment.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>At UNC, you will find doctors who bring not only a collegial attitude but a kind heart, a dedication to their peers and patients, and a humble spirit \u2013 what we refer to as the \u201cUNC Way\u201d. <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Collegiality brings us together, but culture keeps us here.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>We encourage you to learn more about our program and understand what makes UNC-Chapel Hill a truly special place.<\/p>\n<h5><strong>Debra L.
