Hi,
I'm new to the forum...I'm currently a gensurg intern, planning to switch to FP next year (if I get a spot!)
I would like your advice on what questions to ask, topics to discuss and topics to avoid. For surgery interviews, it was all about number of cases, types of cases, trauma and no mention of family, balance or hobbies, except sports. What should I expect it to be like for FM? I don't want to be too stiff, nor do I want to seem lazy or too relaxed! I am also not sure what program-specific questions I really have because I don't see myself having many choices (beggers can't be chosers!)
I am interested in how the services are run, the teaching philosphy, resident-resident and faculty-resident interactions, program stabilty, electives offered, med student teaching.
Call, hours, benefits, etc are also important, but obviously not questions for the PD!
TIA!
