Can anyone tell me about this program (besides what's on the CASPR/CRIP website)? I'm interested in this residency, but haven't heard much about it. It looks like it should be towards the top, IMO.

It is one of the top programs. For externships they take from the top 5 in the class, sometimes exceptions are made. They may match with people that did not extern though.
They are big on internal medicine. It is one of the top hospitals for internal medicine and for transitional year for MDs.
You will get to meet and work with people that are part of Scripps research which is nationally recognized as one of the best research institutions in the country.
When you tell MDs / PhDs where you went they will be highly impressed. It goes a bit under the radar in the pod circles.
One of the Greens (both brothers work there) is the Green from Reverdin-Green procedure.
They have very high expectations of their residents. Radiology conference every friday where the residents and students are pimped.
Research is required.
That is all that I know for now.
I have a friend that is a 1st year so let me know if you have more specific questions.
Krab,
They take from the top 5 of each class to grant externships or they usually take from the top 5 externs for the residency program? Thanks.

Feelgood-
How was Swedish? Apparently you don't believe in calling people back, but that's cool. Hope we can catch up when you get back in DM.
This is my number 1 right now. They say (or said in the past) that they have yet to accept a CPMS graduate into residency so I didn't know if Cali students had priority there.
I'm a little too green in Pod med right now to be that concerned with where I really want to go or even extern. I think I'll feel more confident at the end of this year when I actually start to learn podiatry, I was just curious because it doesn't get much press.
I am now terrified as to what I don't know about podiatry based on Feelgoods and Krab's remarks.
When did you call me??? I did forget to call you while we were in Seattle, but I didn't go out as much as expected. That city is expensive to party in.
As for CPMS and Seattle, Sean Grambart graduated from the program in 2004 (I believe) he was a CPMS grad. I think that the main reason the CPMS hasn't had a major presence out there is most CPMS grads look to stay in the Midwest. Most of the CCPM students look to stay on the West coast.
I'm going to talk about more externships and other pearls of wisdom when I'm back in October. I'll probably set something up through SCACFAS or the class presidents.
Are you still spending second core at the lawns? If so you should get to pretty much do every surgery that walks in the door since there aren't any residents.
Onco-
I'll be back in DM around July 25th. I'll give you a ring when I get back.
