Temple University Program

Survey Respondent:

Jack Mydlo, MD, Department Chair

Survey Responses:

  1. If you were an applicant, why would you choose to train in your residency program?

    If I were applying, I would choose the Temple program because it has five hospitals: a trauma center, a community hospital, a major cancer center, and two pediatric hospitals. We have laparoscopic surgery, six months of lab with two full time PhD's, 22 clinical attendings, and all of our graduating residents have obtained their first choice in either private practice jobs or fellowships. They have excellent clinical and academic training.
  2. What is your program looking for in a graduating medical student?

    We are looking for the medical student who is smart, dedicated and a hard worker and team player. We have an excellent camaraderie in the dept, so it is important that this person can get along with everyone. We are also looking for a person who can finish a task when assigned one with the minimal amount of "spoon-feeding". A perfect GPA and golden letters do not necessarily get us the kind of person we want.
  3. What part of an application do you consider most important in ranking applicants?

    The most important thing in ranking a student is obviously grades and letters, but we feel the impact he or she makes during our interview process carries a lot of weight. We want the person to "gel" with us and the program. A happy resident is a productive one.
  4. What advice do you have for medical students hoping to match in Urology?

    Advice: work hard, do some projects in urology, and do rotations in those institutions that you think you would like to do a residency in or live in that city.

Nice residents and faculty. The location is in a poor part of town but allows for alot of hands on experience by the residents and students. The residents also go out to other hospitals, one of them being a large private one and the other is Fox Chase Cancer Center. All around good experience but it is a six year program.
