thoracic at Wisconsin - They list this as William S Middleton Veterans Hospital, which does not have a Thoracic surgery residency and never has. Also, the name associated with that listing on their page is actually a Veterinary surgical resident that used to live in Wisconsin, but is now at U of Minnesota.
GS at NY Presbyterian - Currently a PGY1, original match was a prelim spot, had to repeat his intern year, but did get a categorical spot in the end.
IM at Hopkins - Not actually Hopkins, the match is Sinai Hospital of Baltimore which is affiliated with JHU, but is a low tier IM program
Psychiatry at Harvard - Not at Harvard, this is a VA psych program that has a loose affiliation with HMS.
Anesthesiology at NY Presbyterian - Not exactly all that competitive, but this is a good match if you want anesthesia in NYC.
saw 1 ortho and 1 neuro surg. - Both at small community hospitals at the least competitive end of the spectrum. (lot less competitive than many programs in IM/Peds/GS)
This right here should tell you all you need to know about the carib programs. They do some very nice "massaging" of their rank lists to make things look better. Even going back over time and revising a prelim to a categorical.
