Hi! I am interested in applying for Endo and was wondering if name value for GPR matters?
like ie) MGH (harvard), Cornell GPR, Mt sinai, Colubmia, Yale VS GPR that you actually get to do a lot (VA Gprs).

Thank you!

Name value does not matter IMO. Patients won't know unless you actively advertise. Your employer likely won't care unless it's the same program they graduated from. You need to visit or get information what kind of procedures residents get to perform under controlled environment.

Name value no, reputation yes. Half of the interviews I received were probably just because of the reputation of the AEGD I went to.
