well, you lucked out...i'm just graduating from ku med so i can give you first hand knowledge of the program! i matched in gas outside of kansas, for personal reasons, and not because the program at ku is sub-standard by any means. the program at ku in kansas city is strong for many reasons...tons of heart cases (there is a soon to open heart hospital which will bring in even more numbers) consisting mainly of CABG's, valves, congenital malformations and exposure to TEE is outstanding. there is loads of ortho, ENT, uro, plastics, general, pain, and trauma. ku does do renal and liver transplants, no other organs as of yet (maybe with the heart hospital a heart transplant program will surface???). ob is very busy and one will get a lot of experience with epidurals/spinals, etc. also, about a year ago a new faculty member was added who specializes in regional, and i see him really taking leadership to improve the amount of regional that is done at ku. the faculty are absolutely top notch, both personally and academically and the program director is by far the most warm and generous physician i have ever met. there is a high boards pass rate and residents have no problems securing fellowships or academic/private practice positions. work hours and call are also extremely reasonable.
i hope this has helped...feel free to pm me if you have any more q's.
