Hi-
I am a M-4 G. Surgery applicant who just completed an externship in surgical oncology and I absolutely loved it. I found the operations to be exciting, I was very interested in the pathology, and I loved dealing with the patients. I realize that it is a fairly competitive field with few spots offered each year. I am looking for advice concerning what factors are important for obtaining a fellowship. Also, does anyone know of programs that are heavy in surg. onc. during residency/ where residents get to spend several months on such a service?
All advice is appreciated
