Anuj Chokshi

Anuj Chokshi is a cardiovascular disease fellow at Northwestern University whose documented work bridges clinical training, community cardiology care, humanism, and medical education. He attended Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine, beginning in fall 2017, and later trained in internal medicine at McGaw Medical Center of Northwestern University. As a medical student, he served the Community Health Clinic’s monthly Cardio Clinic, interviewing patients, conducting physical exams, and helping organize heart-health care. He has described cardiology and pediatrics as early interests and reported research on pulmonary indices relevant to ventricular-assist-device candidacy. Chokshi received Feinberg’s Frederick and Harriett Stenn Award for Humanism in Medicine and later co-led a medical escape-room workshop as an internal-medicine resident.
