Ambassador: Dr. Kaitlyn McSurdy
I grew up in Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania before moving to Philadelphia where I obtained my BS in Biology. I then moved to the beautiful Caribbean island of Grenada for medical school at St. George’s University and ultimately made my way back to Philadelphia, completing both internal medicine residency and a chief year at Temple University Hospital. My career interests include sports and preventive cardiology, with a focus on women’s athletic hearts across their lifespan. In my free time, I love running and am working towards completing the 6 world major marathons, traveling, and content creation, where my content focuses on helping demistifying the match and cardiovascular disease education!

The CardioNerds Healy Honor Roll & Ambassadors Program

The CardioNerds Ambassadors are fellows nominated by CardioNerds fellowships to represent education at their program. They are an esteemed group of highly motivated individuals with a passion for education. The goal is to both:
- Ensure representation on the platform from their programs
- Foster their individual personal & professional development
The CardioNerds Healy Honor Roll is named after Dr. Bernadine Patricia Healy, a CardioNerd Hero who was the first female director of the National Institutes of Health and accomplished incredible achievements during her career.
