This question is geared more towards those in their later stages of training/attendings. Does anyone know how Mount Sinai is viewed in the pathology world and how competitive their graduates are for fellowships and jobs thereafter?

NY ? Florida?
 
mount sinai (NYC) is known for producing pathologists that become accustomed to high volume (liked by private practice). this year's seniors are going to md anderson, sloan kettering, and cedars sinai for surg path, one is staying for neuro, and the last is going to penn for gi..
 
For certain reasons, I have been hearing bad things about mount sinai, NY, especially regarding the workload, and teaching. However, it seems that it's a good name and their graduates get good positions.

I think it's an example how names can count more than the quality of training!!!!!!!

Plus, you get to have Dr. Alan Schiller as your chairman @ MSSM! (world class expert in bone pathology).
 
Rumor has it that Schiller won't be chair for long...
(although I agree he's AWESOME!)

that sucks....maybe the Navy can recall him to active duty and make him an admiral...I'll apply to be his aide-de-camp/bone & soft tissue path fellow. 😀
 
One of the grads from Mt. Sinai Miami is a fellow at Emory. She seems to have really liked her program and spoke very highly of the director, who was a breast pathologist. She is very smart and got a good fellowship, so it sounds like Mt. Sinai Miami has some good features.

True statement followed by a false statement. The worst program with the worst non-pathologist running it currently.

I think the OP is talking about Mt Sinai in NYC. Anyways doing a residency in Miami would have been nice (weather) except the ppl there are douchey.

What do you have against the program? Were you kicked out of the program? Were you a resident there. You seem to have some serious bitterness towards the program.

"In fact, he concedes that the current system of camping out "is the fairest way to do it." But fair, he suggests, can sometimes be silly." - Alan Schiller's sentiments.

Dude you are seriously bitter about this program and this guy for some reason. I don't know who this person is, but whatever happened, move on with life my friend. Posting on SDN about this person is not doing you any good. You are just continuously ranting about this person.
