Hey Everybody,
I just interviewed at St. Vincents and I have come to find out that they are in financial trouble as well as on probation. The chair was very upfront about why they were on probation and said they should be cleared on their next site visit. Also with no money in the hospital, they are forced to down size from 6 to 5 chief residents.
My first inclination is to stay away from a program in such turmoil. I don't really know where the program will be in 5 years. But aside from that, the residents seem very nice, the attendings seem approachable and the location of the hospital is great.
How do you guys feel about ranking a program that is bankrupt and on probation? Just want to here your guys' thoughts.
Thanks.
