I know these are two very different programs. I'm having difficulty deciding on the 2. I understand henry ford has better surgical numbers but kresge has the reputation + in house call. Can we get a healthy discussion about these 2 programs

both are very strong programs with great inner city training and great fellowship placement. Kresge has a lot of big names in retina and is very retina heavy (if that is of interest to you). Go where you think you would be happier. You would come out a great ophthalmologist either way
lol...big names in retina yet they never/rarely match their own into the retina program.

Yeah, they send them off to other great programs. I'm not certain I'd want to do my fellowship at the same place I did my residency. Kresge certainly has a top notch retina fellowship though, few can argue against that.
Agree, most of the better places want their residents to go off elsewhere. It spreads their name around and broadens your training. Inbreeding is not ideal.
To the extruded buckle:
(M)ass Eye and Ear? You don't strike me as the type of applicant who could match there anyway!
To the OP:
Kresge has a great reputation in ophthalmology. I would personally rank them higher unless there were some red flags during the interview....As far as the retina program not keeping their own applicants, you probably wouldn't want to stay in Detroit after 3 yrs anyway....Good luck!
