Osteopathic PM&R Update

Members don't see this ad.

Out of curiosity I looked up the AOA match results this year and there were 2/15 PM&R spots unfilled. Anyone know where?
Also does anyone know anything about the two new LECOM rehab programs? Any early reviews or news?

Saw that too. The 2 unfilled spots are with Nassau (NY). I was wondering if they are waiting to fill them in the ACGME match.

I have heard that they will just convert them over to ACGME. Crazy. It looks like unless an ACGME program makes a mistake by not ranking enough candidates that there will be a 100% fill for both AOA and ACGME.

Casa Colina's program isn't active yet, right? All the info I've gathered says they're under development and not currently accepting residents.

any new words about casa colina or the Larkin/LECOMT program in Miami?
