Anyone here did a rotation in either of the above departments ? Could you tell me about your experience?

Did trauma surgery there. Q3 30 hour call. Great experience - very busy, lots of operative trauma.

How did you go about with the application process? It seems to me that the instructions listed on their website are outdated since they are not replying. Did you physically mail them your application or email them? Also, I assume you rotated there as a resident?

I had to email a bunch of people. I rotated as an M4. From the website, this is the application: http://www.cookcountyhhs.org/wp-content/uploads/2011/11/M4-Application-5.2018.pdf

Dr. Denis is the program director, he eventually replied to my email. Adriana is the program coordinator, she is probably still there. I would email her first.
