Howdy, I'm looking for some help! (I'm not sure yet what I'm going into as far as fellowship)
Really liked U. Washington and will rank their categorical program high, but am unsure where to rank the primary care-Seattle track. It doesn't seem all that different other than more clinic/less elective time, but am wondering what the implications would be as far as fellowship placement. BTW if anyone has any insight into "touchy-feely" aspects of this program, i.e. resident happiness, administrative support, etc. I'd love to hear about it - I liked what I saw, but I feel I only got to see a small part.
UCLA and Harbor - I think I liked Harbor more, but am concerned about the financial situation of LA county hospitals. UCLA seems to have a reputation for being incredibly malignant, though I didn't get that impression when I interviewed. Also read some older posts about how the PD doesn't seem to be very supportive - is the current PD (Friedman) new? She seemed like a nice supportive person to me... And while the intern year is supposed to be tough, is it going to be much tougher than at Harbor (they seemed to work their tails off)?
Appreciate any info/advice!
