1 from my residency was finally terminated more than 1/2 way through 3rd year. He was remediated multiple times by the program however he still just did not have the common sense factor. Quite scary as a intern, let alone when the residency allowed him into second and third year as a senior resident managing an inpt team. He was attempting to get a fellowship, I think hospice, he was unable to grab one, and then weird enough the residency terminated the individual few short weeks later. Almost felt bad for the person, was about to take his ABFM boards and they fired him, however I am thankful he was not able to inadvertently harm others in independent practice. I believe the residency allowed him to go on so long since they truly wanted to give him every chance possible, even though I do believe they let it go for a bit toooooooo long which I am sure made it more difficult for everyone in the matter when it came time to terminating the individual. Seemed really smart, just couldn't see when patients were about to tank or understand when to de-escalate or escalate care.
