I'm interested in cardiology and will most likely end up in private practice, likely interventional, but maybe ep (research bores me, with the exception of clinical/device trials). I know that Texas Heart is one of the best cardiology fellowships in the country and was wondering if there are any current/prior fellows who could shed some light on the program? I'm currently at a fairly malignant "top" program on the east coast and have had enough with eastcoasters. i'm looking forward to moving somewhere with a better lifestyle and with nice people.
Are the fellows happy at THI? Do the fellows have each others back or is everybody out for themselves, ie what's the comradery like? Are the attendings friendly and willing to teach? I've heard good things. Do you have any time for things outside the hospital (I have a family - ie: is it a repeat of residency where everything else has to be put off)? What's Houston like? Thanks and good luck to all applying this year (well kind of this year).
