I am currently in my PGY-1 year in Family Medicine. Throughout medical school, I had planned to complete a Sports Medicine fellowship after completing FM residency. My main interest is in MSK/Sports Med. I completed a rotation in PM&R right after match this past cycle and absolutely loved it. I really enjoyed the procedural side of the PM&R in particular (interventional spine, EMG, etc.). Over the summer, I shadowed under two additional PM&R physicians. There is no doubt I want to make the transition after my PGY-1 year. I have already talked with my current program director regarding the transition and she is supportive of this decision. How do I go about making this transition? I would love to find a PGY-2 spot in a program that would accept my PGY-1 in FM. If this is not possible, is it feasible to go back through the NRMP match and hope to match that way?
Some of my info:
- D.O.
- COMLEX Level 1 510-520, Level 2 570-580. No USMLE.
- 3 LOR from PM&R physician's that I have shadowed under.
- No red flags.
