Can someone that has done fellowships share how much additional general EM training can be obtained from a fellowship? I am at a 3 year EM program and am afraid I will feel incompetent coming out of residency. We have trouble with many procedures and see relatively low volume per shift. We are also very academic so many competing specialities for procedures. I was wondering if pursuing a fellowship can help with this. But from my understanding, the fellows in our program basically act as attendings. There isn't really any really "learning" that happens in their general EM shift and all procedures would obviously go to residents over fellow. Thoughts?
