I am going to be applying to IM this application cycle and I am going to apply to any IM-PC Track at universities if they have them. Also will be doing IM-Categorical if they do not offer PC track.
Just wondering how I should go about figuring out if programs have strong outpatient support or not?
I've heard from some people that IM Outpatient training can sometimes be weaker because they view it as a chore as many people want to do inpatient or subspecialize, and they see very few patients in their clinics during training.
I want a program with a strong outpatient support, and other than looking at Ratios of Inpatient:Outpatient time, are there any other factors to consider when judging these programs that I've never been to?
thanks all
