Are rural rotation sites bad? ex: here's lucom's rotation site list. Clinical Rotations | Liberty University College of Osteopathic Medicine
For what specialty? Or is it just the whole year is in a rural area? If its rural and there are no residents then yes its bad. I am in a semi-rural area. Family med was great because it was so broad. We have a couple residencies so those are good too, but ER, gen surg, and now that I think about it, basically everything else for our site is a total joke.Are rural rotation sites bad? ex: here's lucom's rotation site list.

so everything besides family in a rural area is bad? i'd imagine it's because there are less patients to get practice with?For what specialty? Or is it just the whole year is in a rural area?

You want to be with residents as much as you can. True rural areas dont have the best pathology cases when it comes to ER or surgeries and stuff.so everything besides family in a rural area is bad? i'd imagine it's because there are less patients to get practice with?
