I know Ohio State and Christiana Care both have current DO faculty/residents in their integrated IR program. Can any current cycle applicants mention any other programs that have faculty/residents or were willing to interview DO students? Thanks.

Someone at our DO school has over 10 IR interviews. Just be a good applicant and hope for the best. Also of note, the IR fellowship numbers were 1:1 this year so from DR it is still feasible (as of now).

From last year’s cycle, there were DOs who matched IR at Loma Linda and LSU New Orleans.

Yes, U of Mich is confirmed. Great, didn't know Utah had taken a DO IR resident. BCM in Houston has a great ESIR program but that program is not an Integrated IR residency. Those trainees will need to seek Independent IR residency elsewhere.

Baylor houston allows you to match to the ESIR out of medschool rather than as a resident. Is this not the same? (not applying rads or IR so IDK specifics). Saw his match letter, said "baylor - houston ESIR"

Most programs decide ESIR designation later during DR residency so Baylor is unique in that they match students directly into ESIR designation. It is not the same as Integrated IR, however. It's DR residency with extra IR rotations to shorten the Independent IR residency to 1 year rather that 2 years.
