Residencies that suck

When you said that about Harbor I really thought you were serious, given the physical plant there. I'm sure the residency is awesome though!

How can you have a good residency without top notch facilities??!!

Wallowa, are you trying to get people to rank them lower so you can match there? Cinci and Denver are both very highly regarded residencies!

Don't be ridiculous! All of the programs mentioned on this thread suck! The negatives we have pointed out are real. None of us want to match at any of these crappy programs, trust me! 😡

P.S. BGH = MGH/Brigham - avoid it like the plague!

actually nyp does have pretty hard hours (jokes aside)... 20 12s a month is tough!

see, exactly my point, no one should rank it 😎

You took the words right out of my mouth, Wallowa. Ranking Harbor would be a big mistake - the rumors of its awesome reputation are greatly exaggerated, sadly. 🙁

and don't forget, Dr. Will, solidgold, and other creepy SDNers are there. They don't seem like much fun. I know I wouldn't want to hang out with them! 👎

I feel the need to warn you all about Cincinnati.

This place was the first EM residency, but maybe they're just resting on their reputation?

And you have to fly there . . . on helicopters . . . crazy!

Those things have like a million moving parts.

And you don't even get hazard pay!

They'll even try to get you to moonlight on them.

And the town . . . it's like half in Ohio and half in Kentucky

What kind of town is in two different states? Could they just not decide?

Do you want to be driving through town and not know what state you're in?

I didn't think so. Well, you've had fair warning.

Don't forget the high cost of living, and tsunami risk since it's so close to the beach.

You mean BWH and MGH?

At any rate, apparently I didn't remember the sarcasm from earlier posts. It's been a while since I checked this thread.

Forgive me. We Southerners are a bit sloooooooooooow.

Nobody should bother ranking BMC or Yale, who wants to spend 4 YEARS training when you can be somewhere WARMMM for 3 years?!?!?

Amirite??

AGREED! What's the deal with BMC?!? What EM residents want to run the traumas all by themselves? 😱

And Boston?? Too many distractions! No no...I'm here for work, not play thank you very much. Definitely not gonna rank that place.
