Ep114 | MS4 Perspectives: Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation with Dr. Tate Halfman

We are back with another specialty series interview! In this episode, we spoke with Dr. Tate Halfman, MD, who graduated from the Loyola University Chicago Stritch School of Medicine in May 2023. After a Preliminary Medicine year at University of Chicago Northshore, he will be heading north for PM&R residency at the Medical College of Wisconsin.

Born and raised in San Luis Obispo, CA, Tate came to med school with an eye on musculoskeletal medicine. After two years of exploration, he stumbled upon physiatry and has never looked back. Tate is a proud graduate and Mic Man alumnus of UC Berkeley (GO BEARS!) where he studied Integrative Biology and Spanish Linguistics. After college, he spent two years working as a research assistant in the Kinesiology department of Cal Poly, SLO. He is a lifelong gamer and huge esports fan. He is passionate about mentorship, medical education, and multilingual medical care.


In our conversation, Tate describes his experiences applying and matching into PM&R this past March. Given the often overlooked nature of PM&R, he also explains what the specialty entails and why it appealed to him. Tate provides useful tips and tricks for students interested in PM&R, as well as valuable advice for the residency application process in general.
