So how does the ob/gyn progam in Temple, TX compare to the other Texas programs in bigger cities like Austin, Houston, or Dallas?
 
From one intern there, my program director, and several people that have interviewed there--as long as you can stand living in Temple, this is a wonderful program. The program offers both a decent lifestyle (relatively) without compromising balanced OB and Gyn training. Good faculty, happy residents (most married), good volume.
UT-Southwestern in Dallas is amazing in all things obstetrics and MFM, currently working on boosting their gyn surgery, in my opinion--happy residents, amazing faculty.
 
Thank you for your response. I will have to look into Dallas. How affordable is Dallas? Can you afford a 3bed/2bath house on a resident salary?
