So I've read over the residency reviews a few hundred times but was seeking advice on these residencies, maybe some insider info, make sure the reasons I'm ranking them are correct.
University of Illinois Peoria- Great program, residents seem happy, great rotations, good flight program, PD seems responsive to residents.
(-) Though its out in the middle of nowhere and seems have a rural feel to the program.
University of Conn- (+) Big program, well know enough, resident seem sarcastic in a good way. Simulation lab is second to none. Lots of free time, Seem little light on trauma, residents weren't getting procedures, its located in CT
Metro Health/ Cleveland Clinic- Major program with good rep, a lot of trauma, a lot of path. Metro health + Cleveland clinic add a nice diversity of path. Rumors of PD being a bully, however residents said he is great. I like Cleveland. Residents seem like a crazy fun loving group, really crazy..
UCSF Fresno- Fantastic program, great rep, great residents, located in Fresno, 4 year program.
University of Texas Houston- Great program, huge hospitals, a lot of sick patients, PD seems responsive to residents. Everyone looked very tired. 12 hr shifts, a lot of them.
As you can tell the reputation of the program has importance to me personally. Character flaw I guess. Besides that any input on anything I mentioned, or maybe something I forgot?
