I have an away elective scheduled at Northwestern, Chicago. If anyone has advice from first hand experience, I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Northwestern is a fantastic place with top-notch experience. Dr. Mustoe and Dr. Dumanian are the primary people you'll be working with. I got along with both of them very well on my rotation there as well as all the other attendings. I also got along with all the residents on service very well. Have fun.

They do TONS of cases there. Most days we were in the OR until at least 6PM. Tons of Breast, lots of free flaps, lots of cosmetic. You will not be in clinic hardly at all. I recommend spending a few days at Children's as well.
