I was wondering if anyone had any up to date information about this program. I.e. Call Schedule? hospitals rotated at? The only information I can find is on FREIDA and seems outdated. Any residents at LSU-NO or anyone know someone there who can shed some light?
 
I am currently a resident at LSU New Orleans and would be happy to answer any questions. For starters our program is back in full with a total of 7 residents each year. We continue to rotate in New Orleans, Baton Rouge, and Lafayette as we did prior to Katrina, however the rotations in Baton Rouge have expanded and a good portion is spent on the private rotations. For the most part our program has been strengthed with the addition of the private rotations however we still spend a considerable time in the charity system.
