Boykin Eshleman, MD

I am an Emergency Medicine resident at Virginia Commonwealth University Health System, where I was honored with the 2025 Intern of the Year Award for my dedication to pediatric emergency medicine and excellence in patient care. I earned my Doctor of Medicine from the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Columbia, where I was inducted into the Gold Humanism Honor Society for my leadership, compassion and service. During medical school, I served in multiple leadership roles, including the Culture and Climate Committee and the Curriculum Committee, collaborating with faculty to enhance the learning environment and curriculum structure. My passion for point-of-care ultrasound began early in my medical school training and has grown exponentially during my time at VCU thanks to our amazing ultrasound faculty, who has provided invaluable mentorship through clinical practice, teaching and research. I presented nationally at the Society of Clinical Ultrasound Fellowship conference, earning the SonoSTAR Award, and remain actively engaged with ultrasound education, participating in our residency ultrasound track and preparing to compete in SonoGames 2026. As a candidate for the AEUS Executive Committee Resident Member position, I hope to expand access to high quality ultrasound education, working to strengthen mentorship among trainees and faculty. My goal is to foster collaboration between training programs and expand resident engagement in ultrasound education and research. I am committed to helping AEUS continue its mission of advancing excellence in emergency ultrasound through education, collaboration, innovation and inclusivity, empowering the next generation of ultrasound leaders.
