Hey all,

Does anyone have any ideas about UT Houston and UTMB Galveston for peds. I am seriously considering both the programs as I want to stay in TX...How is the life, fellowship oppurtunities, reputation of the program?

Any thots or infomation would help...!!!

Thanks...

I interviewed at UT Houston. Quite honestly, it's a pretty good program for a program that does not have a stand-alone children's hospital. It does however have MD Anderson as part of their program which is a plus. But, by talking to the residents, they will tell you straight off the bat that they work VERY hard. LOTS of call as an intern. (And no, I'm not like expecting no call, but come on, Q-4 times 10 months!) But, houston is a great town (If you speak spanish). I don't know anything about galveston.

I know a resident at UT-Houston and she's very happy. Says that the attendings are great teachers. Don't know anyone at Galveston.
