Does anyone have experience on how to address a medical leave of absence in your audition rotation and residency applications? I had to take one for a year due to non-psychiatric health reasons, completely recovered, will not impact my performance...just not sure how much detail I need to go into?? Anyone else with similar experience? Thanks!

Say "I had to take a year off for non psychiatric reasons and have fully recovered". All programs want to know is whether or not you are capable of performing the functions and duties of residency. If they want to know more, they'll ask.
