In this episode of the DIGA Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Jackie Nikakis, a graduate of New York Institute of Technology College of Osteopathic Medicine and current dermatology resident at Larkin South Miami. She shares her journey starting from school in Long Island to her transitional year at Peconic Bay Medical Center and now a research year at Larkin South Miami. Dr. Nikakis discusses navigating a non-linear path to residency, making the most of a research year as an osteopathic resident, and committing to the process. We hope you enjoy!
