Trying to research programs on my interview list has been pretty frustrating. There is little objective info about programs out there. Program websites will not mention any problem areas and present only the highlights. On the interviews I've been on, I have heard residents and faculty mentioning problem areas at other regional programs. Now that interview season has started let's get that information out there for the UM community.Please use this thread to discuss possible negative aspects of specific programs including:- Recently resigned chairmen or important faculty- Loss of accreditation, probation, etc.- Loss of hospital affiliations- Residents not passing exams- Anything else you have heardRumor mill start churning.
Interim chairman. Have heard rumors of accreditation issues including recently being on probation.
Heard on the trail that Miami just lost their chairman...
Heard from a PD that Nebraska's chairman is retiring.
Chair/PD, Dr. Casale, at Louisville is resigning. Anyone know anything about the program there and what's to become of it? I like the idea of living/training there, but don't know much about them.
At least last year- Syracuse was on the edge of probabtion due to insufficient number of faculty.
