Gabriel Sobczak, MD
Otolaryngology, PGY 2
University of Wisconsin School of Medicine
Bio
Where did you grow up?
Waunakee, WI (the Only Waunakee in the World™)
What is your medical school/undergraduate background?
I studied biomedical engineering at WashU in St. Louis (B.S. 2017), and went to med school at UW-Madison (Go Badgers! M.D. 2022).
Why are you pursuing a career in ENT?
I found that the balance of clinical and operative load is ideal; as an ENT you can be both a medical and surgical specialist, which is unique among surgical fields. The opportunities for entrepreneurship in the field are also exciting: my first exposure to ENT happened while working on a device design project for engineering. And I’ve always encountered like-minded people in ENT departments!
What intrigued you about IU School of Medicine?
The growth mindset of the department, vested interest in resident wellbeing, reputation for excellent clinical training, and robust research opportunities.
What do you want to learn most from the faculty and residents in the Department of Otolaryngology?
Medical education is something near and dear to me. I hope to learn effective mentorship skills from the faculty and residents, so I can train new generations of successful surgeons in the future.
What are some of your hobbies?
Soccer (playing and watching), downhill skiing, mixing cocktails, and hanging out with friends!
