One of the best parts of my job is training fellows. This year, seeing Dr. Ion Prohnitchi grow as a rhinologist was incredible. Farewelled 4 fellows, but none like dropping Ion off at SEA ✈️ for his journey back to Europe 🇲🇩 ! Honored to be part of your training, Ion! University of Washington Otolaryngology-HNS
