About Me (Christian Sinclair)

My medical training started at the University of California, San Diego, which I completed in 2000. From there my wife, Kelly, our dog and I went to North Carolina for 4 years for my Internal Medicine residency at Wake Forest. My 4th year was spent doing a palliative medicine fellowship at the Hospice and Palliative Care Center. I now have been working since the summer of 2004 at Kansas City Hospice & Palliative Care as a associate medical director. I was also the fellowship program director for the KC Hospice Palliative Care fellowship from 2006-8. I am a big advocate for palliative medicine fellows, and have been the chair of the AAHPM professionals-in-training special interest group (PIT-SIG). I was elected to the AAHPM Board of Directors in 2009.   www.aahpm.org
