they will fill with the increase in US med school enrollment and all the IMG's wanting to at least match. Plus of those 15,000 spots some will go to the better known residencies that people will actually apply to. Don't know how adding more PCP and surgery residency spots is bribing to seize control of medicine. Shumer has always been good to NYS, gave my ambulance corp over 70k in grants in the last 5 years alone. Allowed us to get an MCI unit that can treat up to 50 patients, as well as a new flycar.
Anyone will agree the US needs malpractice reform, but even with that, how does that help educate more doctors, once all the spots fill thats it no matter how much malpractice reform there is
