Artur Polechshuk, MD

Interests/Hobbies: In my free time, I enjoy writing music and performing on stage. Whenever I get the chance, I love to travel even to the most unusual corners of the world.
Future Goals: Over the next three years, I hope to decide between general pediatrics and pursuing a subspecialty. In any case, my goal is to become a true professional in my field.
Best Part(s) of Life in Charleston and/or West Virginia: I’m genuinely amazed by the natural beauty here (and trust me, I’ve been to 26 countries) and by how kind and welcoming the people are. Combine that with delicious food and the charming streets of Charleston, and it’s hard to imagine wanting to leave.
Strengths of Our Program: Exceptional support, both on a personal and professional level. This year has been incredibly challenging for us as first-year residents, and we made it through thanks to the strong support we received from our program. From the very first moment after Match Day, we felt like part of the team and part of a family.
