Hello everyone,
I am a resident in the middle of applying and inteviewing for fellowships. I wanted to start a discussion with regards to which Surgical Pathology Fellowships are considered to be extremely strong; fellowships that would likely "open doors" irrespective of whether you wanted to go into academic or private practice.
I have read on an earlier post by LADoc that a Surgical Pathology Fellowhsip at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center is likely to open doors no matter where you go, whereas MD Anderson would only help you if you wanted to stay in Texas. I don't know if I fully agree with this. Although, MSKCC has some really big names and is always been considered the premiere place to do a surgical pathology fellowship, MD Anderson, also has quite the name for itself. Moreover, over the past few years, MD Anderson consistently has beaten out MSKCC as the number one Cancer center according to US News and World Report (of course which must be taken with a grain of salt). Any comments?
Does anybody have comments/information on any of the big name surgical pathology fellowships? Mayo, Stanford, UCSF, Wash U, MGH, Hopkin, Penn, or others? thanks
