Which programs are considered work-horse programs? Don't get me wrong, I'm not looking for a 40 hr a week gig, but I want a program with a decent didactic set up that doesn't use me as cheap labor. So which programs have the slave labor rep??

You will get worked in these programs so you'll be sacrificing free time to read, relax, exercise, hang out, etc. However, you will come out clinically strong.

Don't know how it is now, but I had time to read, relax, get into the best shape of my life, be chief resident, etc. at UTSW. You definitely work hard, but I wouldn't call it malignant or a sweatshop.

I'm not an anesthesiologist so I apologize for my ignorance. On some long cases when the patient is stable, is there time to read (something easy like surgical recall)?

I would never call UTSW malignant or a sweatshop since I only interviewed there and never rotated there.
I did have some classmates that did away rotations there and commented on long work hours, so that is all I feel comfortable saying about the program.
search the forum, keyword workhorse, or just horse, or whatever. whole thread already devoted to this topic. practically the same exact title too. 👎
