Dr. Karthikaikumar Sivakumar M.D.
I am incredibly grateful to have matched into the Family Medicine Residency Program at Dalhousie University. The journey to residency was long and challenging, but my training at All Saints University helped build the resilience, clinical foundation, and determination needed to achieve this milestone. Matching into residency is the culmination of years of hard work, perseverance, and belief in the process. To current students, my advice is simple: stay focused, trust your preparation, and never give up on your goal of becoming a physician. The path may not always be easy, but with dedication and persistence, it is absolutely possible. I am proud to represent All Saints University as I begin the next chapter of my career in Family Medicine, and I hope my journey can inspire others to continue pursuing their dreams in medicine.

Long Nights, Lighter Steps Looking back, I’m not sure how I got through those last few months of medical school. Between the exhaustion of finishing rotations, the board exams, the endless pressure of interviews, and that agonizing wait for Match Day, I honestly felt like I was running on fumes and caffeine. But when it was all over and I saw where I’d be spending my residency, every all nighter and every moment of doubt suddenly made sense. Graduating felt surreal and the pride wasn’t just in the diploma, but in knowing I hadn’t quit when things got hard. Now, heading into residency, I know the real work is just beginning. I’ll be the first to admit I’m nervous, there’s still so much I don’t know, and the responsibility feels heavy. But I also feel ready in a way I never expected. The support from my mentors, my family, my friends and even my fellow classmates who struggled right alongside me got me here.
Dr. I. Osanakpo
I’m immensely thankful to ASU for the opportunity to realize my dream of becoming a physician. From day one, I was welcomed by a supportive community and faculty dedicated to student success. The curriculum is rigorous, providing a strong foundation in medical sciences while offering practical, hands-on training. The clinical rotation opportunities, with connections to hospitals in the Caribbean and the U.S., have been invaluable in preparing me for residency. My time at All Saints was memorable and, I am proud to be part of such a dedicated and supportive institution.
Dr. Victor Erhiano
I am deeply thankful to my family, All Saints University Dean of Academics and faculty, mentors, and friends, whose constant support, encouragement, and belief in me have made all the difference. Matching into a residency program is truly a dream come true, better yet, matching into my #1 choice in Family Medicine—an absolute miracle that I could not have achieved alone. The path to this point has been filled with challenges, sacrifices, and moments of uncertainty, but each obstacle has played a crucial role in shaping me into who I am today.
Dr. Blessing George
“In 2019, I came to All Saints University as a confused transfer student, looking to gain US clinical experience to become a Physician in the United States. Today, I can say that I got all I wanted and even more. I received immense support from all the staff throughout my journey during clinical rotations and have made lifelong relationships with the amazing Doctors I have been honored to meet. All Saints provided me with a great foundation to set my future as a Physician in the US, and I remain eternally grateful.”
Theresa Olajide (BSN, RN)
“The Bachelor of Science in Nursing program at All Saints University School of Medicine in Dominica equipped me with the essential skills and confidence to excel in my career. The supportive faculty and hands-on experiences were instrumental in shaping my nursing practice. I highly recommend this program to anyone considering a career in nursing, especially at an affordable university!”
Dr E. Ibuoka
I came to All Saints as a leap of Faith in pursuing my lifelong dream of becoming a medical doctor. The depth of my story cannot be encapsulated in one paragraph, however through this journey and through the ups and downs, the biggest factor contributing to where I am are the people that I have worked and learned with all these years. I am grateful for the teachers at All Saints, grateful for my fellow students and the people that have charted the course before me.

The encouragement and guidance I received, both in the classroom and in clinical settings, helped me develop the resilience, knowledge, and skills necessary to thrive in residency and beyond. As I take this next step, I carry with me the lessons and values instilled by my alma mater, and I look forward to using them to make a meaningful impact in patient care.”

I am truly grateful for the education and support I received throughout my medical journey. Matching into an Internal Medicine residency is a dream come true, and I am proud to represent All Saints. The training and mentorship I received played a big role in helping me reach this milestone. To current students, stay focused and keep pushing forward—your hard work will pay off.
Dr. Ekechukwu Ekeh
I thank God for blessing me with this achievement and for directing me to choose the right medical school. I can’t think of any other accredited medical school that will tolerate a student with as much financial challenges as I had as ASU did. Rather than penalize me for late payments, ASU encouraged me-for this, I will always be grateful. A special thank you to Dr Guzin Dincel for always having time for me and my endless questions. R.I.P to my fallen classmates Dr Isaw and Dr Nweke Chukwuka.
