Interventional Radiology Interview Thread 2016-2017

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Hey, did you get an actual IR Stanford invite or the DR invite that said:

"If you have applied for both DR and IR residencies at Stanford please sign up (or waitlist yourself) for one of the AM interview slots. The IR residency coordinator will confirm if you are invited for IR interviews in addition, which will occur in the afternoon either the day before or the day of your AM DR interview. "

I received the above, but have not received an explicit message from the IR residency coordinator confirming an invite to interview for IR.

Members don't see this ad.
 
Has anyone heard from the BWH IR/DR program? Not seeing it on the list...

Their IR coordinator sent out a separate interview invitation around the same time as the DR invitation yesterday.

Ooh, I actually got the IR invite before the DR email, that's why I was confused.

Yeah I received an email from the IR coordinator a few minutes before the DR invite.

I received an invitation for IR (didn't apply to DR here), and it seems that you have to interview with both IR and DR on separate days. The choice of days are consecutive.

Ah I see. That makes planning a bit more difficult. Would you mind posting the dates?

According to my e-mail the IR dates are in the afternoons of 12/14, 1/11, and 1/18, and the DR dates are the mornings of 12/5, 12/15, 1/9, 1/12, and 1/19. I should have said some of the dates are consecutive. I should also mention that the list has dates that I did not get in my e-mail.

For UCSF, it was weird. I first got a waitlist e-mail, and then 3 minutes later I got an e-mail saying I wasn't selected for an interview. Talk about let down.
 
Has anyone received an invite to Stanford or Vanderbilt that is out of state for those schools?

Yes Vandy, not UCSF/Stan. I def think there is a huge regional bias given some of the higher caliber east coast programs that have given me invites

For all those top programs it's a total dice roll. I think it just comes down to PDs hoping to get a good diversity in their class. For example, If your big thing is teaching/education/TFA, but they have similar applicants they like more (regional bias, internal applicant, away student, etc) for that niche, then you get knocked down. That's at least how I've been making sense of the seemingly random distribution of top 20ish programs.

I think this statement is exceptionally true for residency interviews. Due to the match process, programs have to filter for diversity at the interview level (i.e. they have less control if they filter using the rank list). If a program wants a teacher in their class and there are two interview slots for three "teacher" applicants, they are going to invite the two applicants who are more likely to rank them high. Assuming everything else is equal. Location has traditionally played a huge role in applicant's rank lists.

I would also keep in mind the emphasis of each program. Stanford and UCSF are both in the Bay Area, but have very different hospitals and institutions associated with them. Both programs train world-class researchers, but I think Stanford has more of an tech/engineering/entrepreneurial interest while UCSF has more of a clinical/basic science interest. UCSF is a bit of a curve ball in that it doesn't have a interdisciplinary college associated with it (e.g. if you Google UCSF computer science, the top results are from USF and SFSU). I've received interviews from some top programs, but not at others. The common denominator seems to be a strong computer science interest at the adjoining university. I think if consider your strengths as an applicant, and then look at the "reach" places that chose to interview you, they might just be those that match your talents and interests.

The more interviews I go on, the more I realize that a lot of us will have to go super-deep on the rank list. Places are tacking on IR interviews to DR interviews, and based on an interview I had this week, some may interview 60 people for 1 IR spot. I've gotten a decent amount of IR invites, but the more I'm on the interview trail, the more I'm thinking of ranking a strong DR much higher than some IR. It will be 5 years from now before we start doing significant IR, and departments can change a lot in 5 years. With the alternative pathway, I'm almost thinking its too early to lock in unless you happen to work your way to a 'top 10' that has been stable for years. Anyone else have similar thoughts?

I think your strategy will be common. It'll be interesting to see if some integrated spots go unfilled. Example case: What if everyone who interviews for IR/DR ends up alternating top DR/IR and DR (e.g. UCSF DR/IR, UCSF DR, Stanford DR/IR, Stanford DR, etc.)? You probably have an 80% chance of matching DR and 20% chance of matching IR in this case, since there are so many more DR spots. This assumes programs rank DR/IR interviewees high for both DR and DR/IR.

60 people for 1 spot? Where was this? That is ludicrous.

Obviously won't say names, but you can imagine a program with around 10 DR spots interviews between 100-120 people in total (10-12 applicants per position). Same IR program only has 1 IR/DR spot. Candidates selected by DR first, then if they applied to IR are interviewed by an IR attending or two on interview day. Extremely low cost for the IR program to tack on that extra interview to get a better look at many more candidates since they will be there anyway for DR. Based on numbers I saw on my interview day and averaging out over known interview dates for both programs, it is possible they could rank 60 people for 1 IR/DR spot. Not all programs work this way, but some do.

Also interviewed at a program that had setup their residency to take 4 ESIR in each DR class, and have enough spots to move them into the home independent residency if they choose to stay. This is at a top notch DR place that I did not get invited to for IR/DR. However, if 120 diehard IR colleagues match elsewhere into integrated IR/DR, the chances of getting an ESIR at this institution are pretty good. And in the off chance that all h*ll breaks loose in the next 5 years and all the great docs migrate to another institution, I would have the opportunity to do the last IR year at a (hopefully) great place. If you go IR/DR you are locked in and getting out of your contract would be tough if not impossible.

Lots to think about

Call me crazy, but I was sitting at my interview today thinking over who I've met on the trail so far and was thinking that there will probably be some IR/DR spots go unfilled in the first match. (Will certainly fill during match week)

My thoughts: The best way to get into IR is through the integrated program. In general, stronger DR program = stronger applicants/residents = more competition internally for alternative pathways to IR. It wouldn't make much sense to rank IR programs lower if that's what you ultimately want to do.

Also, not all strong DR programs necessarily have strong IR training as per my mentors.

I agree with you totally that not all great DR places have great IR, but it's also true that not all great IR places have great DR. I'm not really willing to sacrifice 3 years of DR training just to get a spot in IR. One of the main reasons I'm here instead of applying to vasc surgery is because I want a strong DR training. Up until the last two weeks on the trail, I thought I would try to snag an IR spot at all costs, but after seeing programs up close my thinking has changed. Mainly because I have been underwhelmed by two 'middle tier' (don't know how else to describe it) programs. If you have the chance to go DR at a dream place, how could you give that up for a mediocre IR program.

I got the same impression from what was mentioned above. Programs are interviewing a large number of candidates for only 1-3 IR spots probably due to the fact that they're also interviewing you for a DR position. So from their perspective, all the IR/DR candidates are just part of the larger DR pool, mostly considering them for DR but gives them an opportunity to weed out exactly who they want for IR. But for applicants or atleast for me, I'm thinking, "Oh man I really want the IR residency" and approaching it like it's an interview for two different specialties (main and back-up one).

I've thought about how to rank programs IR vs DR for a while now even before applying to IR/DR. I just think it might be smarter to rank DR's of your choice above other IR's if you really want to be a part of the program.

1. You're competing for a larger number of positions in DR giving you a higher chance to match at a program you prefer
2. It's less competition for ESIR in the end because it's inherently less number of candidates (ie. 12 residents for 1-2 ESIR spots and not everyone is going to pursue IR. A good majority think they want to do IR at first but find something else during residency hence programs are leaning towards selecting ESIR candidates after R1 year or later. These odds are way better than the number of med students interviewing for 1-2 integrated IR spots)
3. You get the chance to know the program director well and show how good you are / how hard you work during residency giving you more control when trying to get ESIR
4. You may be one of those gungho IR people who end up deciding not to pursue IR, so you have flexibility.

Just reflecting on the whole process, if i could do the process over again and the programs approach the application process the same way as they did this year, I would probably just apply to DR only. It just seems to be the best approach to match and eventually become an IR resident at the institution you like most. Just my 2 cents.

Plus - I'm sure there are some DR program directors who were against the whole integrated IR residency in the first place. Opening the possibility of some negative bias against IR applicants.

Anyone correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought that the only risk of ranking a more competitive program higher on your rank list is falling deeper on your rank list (e.g. "I matched at #12 instead of #2"). If you rank a less competitive program #1 and they rank you to match, you will end up at that program and are essentially not giving yourself a chance to match at the more desirable program who may have also wanted you.

So assuming one's priority is matching into IR/DR irrespective of location, it would be in one's best interest to rank all IR/DR programs higher than DR, right? Maybe I'm missing something. :shrug:

This is correct. From my understanding, most programs that you interview at for DR/IR will let you rank them separately for DR and DR/IR. If you really want to match into an integrated program, you should rank all of your IR/DRs above your DRs (or not rank your DRs at all if you're crazy).
 
60 people for 1 spot? Where was this? That is ludicrous.

For what it's worth, the Stanford IR invite said, "We are interviewing a maximum of three IR applicants each afternoon." and "IR interviews...will occur in the afternoon either the day before or the day of your AM DR interview."

There are 8 DR interview days, so:

8 days x 2 IR interviews (day before or day of) x 3 interviewees / day = 48 interviewees

Actually, four of those days are on Mondays, and I doubt they will be conducting interviews on Sunday, so the upper bound is probably 48-12 = 36 interviewees.

I think that's a reasonable number to interview for three spots.

anyone with a Colorado interview in Dec willing to switch for Nov 11?
 
Has anyone heard from Brigham and Women's?

I emailed the program director, here's his response:

Hi XXXXX, Thanks you for your interest in the integrated IR program at BWH. You are among the candidates that our selection committee is still considering but we have not made a final decision on who we will be offering interviews to yet. We are coordinating the integrated IR interviews with the DR interview process and as a result will not be able to offer any interviews next week. We are planning on interviewing in December and January. We should be ready to send out the formal interview invitations next week, I apologize for the delay. Best Regards, Tim Killoran.​
 
Not all IR programs are alike. Look to see the fellows log to see the scope and breadth of cases they are doing. Also, are they getting primary operator status and if so at what point in their training. Do the trainees have clinic and is the IR service admitting their own patients. I would look at what aspects of IR they are covering and what volume.

Are they doing oncology (race and ablations (liver, kidney, lung , bone)
Are they doing peripheral arterial disease (lower extremity arterial interventions/sfa/tibial/iliacs)
Are they doing aortic interventions (AAA/Thoracics/dissections)
Are they treating fibroids (how many)
Are they doing varicose veins (how many)
Are they doing carotid stunting and stroke work (how many)
Are they doing vertebroplasty/kyphoplasty (how many levels)


Clinical activities:

Non-procedural activities:
How many primary admissions to the IR service.
Outpatient clinic: Initial consult numbers; follow up numbers

was at MCW last week. wow, what an incredible program. pretty grueling interview process about six interviews in total. They do a ton of cases and what I thought was very interesting was that the diagnostic radiology departments "Low-level "procedures such as abscess drainages, pikk lines, etc. So you will be doing a ton of those kinds of procedures during DR training first 3 years. IR does all the high-level procedures such as TEVARs, interventional oncology, spine interventions, dialysis, etc.. The faculty seemed really passionate and there is a ton of research going on. Also a ton of volume and clinic. Dr. Patel, the PD, showed the blueprints for the expansion of the program and the new operating suites in the new building end it looks absolutely incredible (eta completion next year July 2017). Definitely spoiled me for my past IR interviews and I feel like the bar is set very high for my upcoming interviews. The only downside that I can think of is that the program is located in Milwaukee, but I am from a similar kind of city in the south so it would be a good fit for me but perhaps not for others. I hear the weather also sucks during the wintertime. maybe another con is that the diagnostic radiology program is not among the premier training programs but I guess it does not matter if you're looking to do IR in the future and I imagine that the connections and the training you receive your will prepare you tremendously well for academia and will guarantee you a high-level job.
 
What are the general opinions of the some of the programs you guys have interviewed at so far?
 
I have an IR interview tomorrow at MGH, but it occurred to me that I never received a confirmation email from Kaitlyn Ouellette (IR program coordinator). I have a confirmation from Melanie Miller (DR program coordinator) for the DR interview on Tuesday. I'm not sure where to go / what time to be there tomorrow for the IR interview. Did anyone receive a confirmation from Kaitlyn or information about where to go? I suppose I'll show up at 7:45 am at the Founder's House Building, that's where we are supposed to be for the DR interview.
