How does the experience of the current, typical 3 year podiatric residency compare to that of the "typical", stereotypical regular medicine residency? I'm referring to the stereotypical med residency of 80+ hours, hell on wheels, etc.
I know the first year of podiatric residency will be just like that of the internship year of a med residency and thus will be the 80+ hours, hell on wheels, etc. What about the other two years? Do they stay like that, or become milder? Do they become a bit more like a typical workweek? How many hours, on average, would you say the typical pod residency is in the 2nd and 3rd years?
Anything else to give me an idea what it's like?
