Hey everyone,
Been worrying about a if a residency program is known to be lacking in certain aspects of the training such as procedures (no VA), how would you go about trying to make up for that during residency? undecided if I'm interested in any type of fellowship, but I just hope that after 3 years I'll be at least competent in procedures, dermpath, etc in case I want to fly solo right after residency. Obviously every program has its strengths and weaknesses, but just wondering if I should go into residency accepting the fact that my training or exposure to various procedures will be less than ideal, or if I can do anything on my part to increase my skills. Any thoughts appreciated!
