i'll just put it out there now, i think hands down, the best general, and i emphasize general surgery program out there is university of miami. their broad scope of patients is unmatched. there is no place in the US that see's the vast population of immigrants, 3rd world (i.e advance stage disease, i.e operative, all classes of people and serves advanced tertiary needs WITHOUT a large influx of fellows that you see at a mayo or cleveland clinic. which means you, the general surgeon, not the fellow will get to do this case. i'm not at Uof M, but i did love the program when i interviewed. demographics , language barriers suck, but as far as a skilled surgeon who has seen a lot, miami.
general surgery has changed vastly over the past decade, and few centers now have the patient population to support comprehensive learning as it used to. things are more non operative, more medical therapy. all these things decrease the flow of patients. that coupled with the massive influx of specialist, the training of a general surgeon has definitely taken a hit. but jackson memorial i think is a place thats thriving, its a regional powerhouse in southern florida and serves a 350 mile radius off the coast
i'll take the dude you are crazy as hell comments now.
