Wisconsin Native Amazed by Alabama
If you had told me when I was at the Medical College of Wisconsin that I’d one day lead the UAB Division of Cardiovascular Disease in Birmingham, Alabama, I would not have believed you, but life has a way of making the unbelievable a reality. When I came to visit the city, I was immediately captivated by its beauty, the culture, and the community. I hope that our warm and welcoming environment will inspire you to come visit yourself. We sure would love to have you.
— Nicole Lohr, MD, PhD, Division Director
