I dont know about the program but I know two former residents. Both got competitive fellowships and spoke highly of the program. One continues to work there. Good luck, it strikes me as a solid program

Very good, but I heard in the last few years they had some issues with their heart transplant program. I think they might only be doing valves and CABGs now, not sure about VADs.

Based on my interview day impression last year, it seemed very strong. Very underrated. Happy residents, strong training, solid fellowship match, good location within Philadelphia. More residents showed up to the pre-interview dinner than the applicants, which says a lot about how content the residents are. I ended up matching in another city for personal reasons, but Jefferson was my #1 choice outside the city I matched at.

Or maybe they're poor and wanted to eat dinner on the program's dime lol
