I posted this question in another thread, but I think it got eaten up by other replies so...is there anybody who already completed a prior residency who has interviews and if so, where if you don't mind saying? When I researched this, it seemed like quite a few programs (atleast 30 or so have taken residents who've completed a prior residency in recent years) accepted second residents, and I know that there is only a 30% chance of matching as a second resident, but I was just wondering how others were doing in my boat? Good luck to everyone🙂

If you want to know which programs are able to sponsor a second residency in dermatology, I know that UTSW and UTMB can.

UAB, for one, cannot.
 
I completed a residency in another field and have been in private practice for several years. I had great stats, good letters, good USMLE scores, research...

I was hopeful, but have gotten no invites. None. It's ego crushing. Three waitlists.

It's a tough, tough road for us, jh0276. Have you gotten interviews at all?

Anyone else? I know there were several others hanging around here who had completed residencies and were trying for a second in derm.
 
I've seen a few peds residents match - with interest in peds derm
