Letter from the Program Director: Deisy Ramirez, M.D.
Dear Prospective Applicant,
Welcome to Harvard South Shore (HSS) and thank you for your interest in our program!
We faced major challenges, and overcame them, over a transformative year in the field of psychiatry, our nation, and the world. We learned to adapt at a fast pace, we learned that we are resilient, and we learned to embrace the differences that make our program and nation unique. We are better prepared to enter a new stage in psychiatry education, with a new sense of responsibility to provide mental health services to millions of individuals suffering from mental illness and educate outstanding future psychiatrists.
The Harvard South Shore Program is based at the VA Boston Healthcare System and affiliated with Harvard Medical School. We provide comprehensive training to our residents to become the psychiatry leaders of tomorrow through development of clinical expertise, research skills, and excellence in education and teaching.
Our residents acquire clinical excellence through rotations in a broad range of settings, providing them with the knowledge and tools needed to become independent psychiatrists upon graduation. Our clinical training is supplemented by affiliations with major psychiatric centers in the Boston area as part of our role as a Harvard Medical School psychiatry training program. Residents from our program pursuing subspecialty training are highly competitive, frequently matching in their first-choice program at top centers in the country.
In addition to our world-class clinical training, the Harvard South Shore program supports trainees in their research, leadership, educational, and advocacy ambitions throughout the four years:
The upcoming interview season will incorporate what we learned during the past year with the remote interview process and adapt to an everchanging environment. At Harvard South Shore, we aim to provide you a comprehensive overview of what it is like to be a resident, so you can truly imagine what it would be like to live and train here.
We look forward to receiving your application and meeting you, wishing that you enjoy the interview process and grow as you make decisions for the next stage in your careers and lives.
Sincerely,
Deisy Marcela Ramirez, M.D.

Letter from the Chair: Grace Chang, M.D., M.P.H.
Dear HSS Applicant,
Thank you for your interest in the Harvard South Shore Psychiatry Residency Training Program. We are delighted to share our enthusiasm for the program with you.
By way of introduction, I am Professor and Chair of Harvard Psychiatry at the VA Boston Healthcare System. A graduate of Yale College and the Rutgers-Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, I completed training in General Adult Psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine where I was subsequently a Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholar in Internal Medicine and Psychiatry. My clinical research career has been dedicated to the identification and treatment of the substance use disorders in the obstetric, medical, and emergency room settings. Having been active as both a clinician and researcher in transplantation psychiatry, I am currently Chief of the Consultation Liaison Psychiatry Service at the West Roxbury campus.
I have had the privilege of working at some of the best academic medical centers in America, and I am pleased to count VA Boston Healthcare to be among them. The VA is the nation’s largest integrated health system, offering comprehensive services to eligible veterans. And, as a recent RAND Corporation study of health care quality shows, the VA health system provides care that is higher in quality than what is offered elsewhere in communities across the nation. Fortunately, the VA is also the nation’s largest educator of health care professionals in the United States.
Thus, the Harvard South Shore Psychiatry Residency could be the ideal setting for the candidate who is interested in achieving clinical and academic excellence. Faculty and staff are dedicated to patient care and to your education. We are committed to working with you so that your potential will have its fullest expression. Please feel free to be in touch if you would like any other information as you consider your training options.
With best wishes,
Grace Chang, M.D., M.P.H.

Stefania Buonocore, D.O., M.S., Executive Chief Resident 2021-22
My name is Stefania Buonocore. I am a PGY-4 resident and the Executive Chief Resident of HSS.
One of the features of HSS that drew me to the program was the obvious resident camaraderie. In addition to the support among residents and staff, living and working in the greater Boston area has led to numerous opportunities to grow as a psychiatrist. Boston is such an extensive medical hub through which opportunities to network and work in different settings are abundant.
Some of my professional interests include consult liaison psychiatry and impact of mental health stigma. As Chief resident, interest in advocacy for patients further extends to supporting residents. Developing as a leader is something that HSS can foster as you progress through residency and carve your niche; there are ample opportunities for elective time and residents are supported on their path to professional development.
I am also excited to be involved with the residency recruitment process this year, and look forward to meeting you and introducing you to our HSS family!

Hi, my name is Serena Chen. I am a PGY-4 resident and the Chief of Wellness at Harvard South Shore. I originally graduated from the University of Maryland with a Bachelor of Science in Business and worked as a consultant before deciding to pursue medical school. While attending the Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine, I was interested in quality improvement and was a founding member of the Institute of Healthcare Improvement Chapter in Kalamazoo, MI. My research work was focused on healthcare collaboration and integrated healthcare. I was also active in the American Medical Women’s Association. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking, dancing, and playing with my pup.
I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to work, learn, and grow at Harvard South Shore for the past few years. The unique combination of Harvard as well as the VA meant there was a wealth of resources available to residents of the program. With my interest in integrated healthcare model, the VA gave me an interesting opportunity to work inside the largest integrated healthcare system in the United States. Harvard South Shore has been an excellent place for me to grow and thrive.
In my role as the Chief of Wellness, I hope to use my skills to make HSS a little bit of a better place. To me, positive morale and resident well-being means that in a deeper sense, we generally feel good about our work, our team, and ourselves. It does not mean we won’t have rough patches along the way, but that in the currents of change, we know that generally we are going in the right direction and that we’re in it together working toward a shared mission. It’s been a tumultuous time in the past year both locally and worldwide, but despite it all, we have made so many positive changes and stayed together in spirit even though we’re forced to be physically distant for now.
I hope I will get to meet you one day! Regardless, I hope you’re well!

Hi, my name is Terrance Dolan! I am a PGY-3 resident and a Chief Resident of Education. I’m originally from northern New Jersey, studied psychology as an undergrad at the University of Rochester, NY and attended medical school at New York Medical College before coming to Boston. My professional interests include child and adolescent psychiatry, psychotherapy, and education of trainees. During my training, I’ve been thrilled to explore many opportunities to become involved in research, teaching, leadership, and more.

As a Chief of Education, I have a hand in clinical teaching of residents through protected didactic time, PRITE review, & Board preparation. I also am involved in the development of HSS’s didactic curriculum, orientation of our interns, and a member of the Grand Rounds committee.

Hi, I’m Frank Copeli, PGY-4 and Chief Resident of Geriatric Psychiatry at McLean Hospital.
I am so happy with the opportunities I was able to pursue at HSS. While being a resident, I pursued my research interests in Geriatric Psychiatry, Neuromodulation, and medical issues in Older Adults with Schizophrenia. I received outstanding support from my colleagues and mentors and had the privilege of treating a fascinating, diverse population of patients. I went on to become an Assistant Editor for the Harvard Review of Psychiatry in PGY-3,-a 2 year position where I have been able to contribute to some of the most important discussions occurring in psychiatry while collaborating with faculty and residents from all of the Harvard psychiatry residency programs. I was also an American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry Scholar, a program that provided support for my research and career interests.
HSS’ generous and flexible parental leave benefits allowed me to achieve my professional goals while expanding my family. As a PGY-4, I have been able to design a schedule comprised of research, clinical rotations, education and administrative rotations that balance my professional and personal goals. I wish all applicants the best of luck on the interview trail!
