NYC has many, many IMG-friendly hospitals. "Friendly" being a watered-down euphemism for "exclusive." I've seen your posts in the ortho forum-- you should be fine.

Don't worry. There are plenty of crappy hospitals in Manhattan who would like to have a surgical prelim to beat on. It's not just out in the boroughs.
