What a Philadelphia assignment actually feels like

Philadelphia’s major hospitals align with distinct transit and neighborhood corridors. Penn Medicine anchors University City, Jefferson sits in Center City, and Temple University Hospital is in North Philadelphia. A central location can work for Jefferson but may require a transfer or longer trip to Penn or Temple.
