I've interviewed at an equal number of community hospitals and university programs for GI fellowship. I want to do general GI and have the opportunity to do the bread and butter endoscopy. I'm not sure at this moment if I'll continue into academics.
Are there particular advantages for choosing a community vs university hospital for GI fellowship?
For the most part, university programs will have the edge in education, research, volume of endoscopies, and broader variety of pathology.
However, will less job opportunities / offers be available if I go into a community program?
Are community programs generally less busy than university programs?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys.
