Anonymous Review: Indiana University
1. Ease communication: emails
2. Accommodation and food: Conrad Hotel downtown was very nice. Residents came to lobby to escort to restaurant, which was amazing food. A shuttle was provided from hotel to interview. A lunch on interview day was also fun, residents were all very friendly and seemed to enjoy each other’s company quite a bit. All seemed to treat each other with respect, chiefs seemed to be kind to all the other residents and everyone seemed to get along well.
3. Interview day: The interviews were about 30mins, like most, had 6 of them, all causual and nothing out of the ordinary. The day was laid back and friendly. All the residents were nice and got along well, did not seemed forced, seemed genuine, chief seemed to be down to earth and very supportive of all residents, residents just came across as a normal smart bunch of people. Overall experience was positive
4. Program overview:
Intern year has 3 months of medicine and 1 month ER. Seems like a good experience for most interns, feels work to education balance is reasonable. The second year is divided up into 6 months with different rotations 1-2 days per week, geri, addictions, child, consults, cbt, QI project, ER. Seemed very well designed. The third year seemed like a good clinical eperience with 4 full days of pharm clinics, a therapy clinic, and an elective time. Strong outpatient clinical education from the resident’s perspective. The 4th year is electives. The Eskenazi is gorgeous facility. Program has multiple speciality tracks to focus your education.
5. Faculty: numerous and accomplished. Experts is mood disorders, psychosis, therapy etc. well rounded and experienced faculty. Emphasized that faculty there to help residents develop their individual identities as psychiatrists. PD seems completely committed to creating a rich educational experience and professional environment.
6. Location and lifestyle: Indianapolis is nice city with good cost of living. Call is mostly second year, which seems popular with residents.
7. Salary and benefits: avg salary. healthcare coverage included
8. Program strengths:
----Focus on education over service
----variety of clinical experiences
----strong teaching
----individualized education
----good work life balance
----excellent placement in fellowships, issues with people not matching in what they want
9. Weaknesses
----midwest location
----addictions
