Resident Wellness
At UC San Diego, resident wellness is a priority. Our wellness program is designed to foster community, support work-life balance, and create opportunities for residents to connect with one another through social events, fitness activities, mindfulness sessions, and other wellness initiatives.
Our Wellness Chief Residents, Drs. Becca Johnston and Edmundo Esparza, lead the residency's wellness programming and organize monthly events designed to promote community, balance, and professional fulfillment. Visit our Wellness Blog below to learn more about our 2026–2027 initiatives, explore highlights from past events, and view wellness resources available to our residents, including expedited physician primary care appointments, the HEAR (Healer Education, Assessment, and Referral) Program, and additional support services.
