I am fearful I wont get into a pedo program so I am also looking into GPR/AEGD's that have lots and lots of pedo patients as a backup.
Let me know if you know of any programs!
 
I'm not sure of which ones are heavy in pedo, but don't choose a GPR which has a pedo residency in the same hospital.... All of the pedo (<13 years old) will be siphoned into the pedo program.
 
OU VA does a week or more in some pedo hospital
 
Any other programs that spend a large part in a Children's Hospital?
 
I’ve heard Flushing Hospital is also lots of pedo. Their PASS deadline is Nov 1st I think so you could still apply too.

Kool Smiles?
 
If you want to treat kids you should become a pediatric dentist. If you don’t match, reapply and try again. There are no short cuts. A GPR is not the answer.
 
Hi thank you for the response. Not trying to find the short cut. Checking on GPR to become more stronger and competent. Absolutely end goal is to match for a pediatric residency program which I like

Respectfully disagree. There's a pedo resident who went to a GPR program heavily focused in pedo who matched and the GPR program he/she attended was mentioned in this thread. There's a lot of things about a GPR that translate over to pedo.
 
Hi, Is Kool smiles has GPR program ? I can't see it in PASS site or anywhere. Can you send the link.
I think they were pulling your chain. Kool Smiles is a corporate pedo chain with a less than favourable reputation.
