Rotator reports3 reports · paraphrased
hands-onpresentation req.
  • 25-26Rotators described Kentucky as a welcoming, well-run program with a full week of OR exposure (described as more OR time than many away rotations). Typically 3 students per block with no concurrent home students. Faculty and residents described as warm and teaching-focused.
  • 23-24Multiple rotators described Kentucky's culture as standout-positive: residents and attendings invested in student success, a dedicated med student educator, opportunity to present at Grand Rounds, and meaningful skill practice at consults and the VA (resident-run). Week structure: surgery, consults, VA, clinic.
  • 22-23Rotators described a hands-on rotation: teching VA patients, practicing techniques in clinic, and EyeSi practice. Residents described as friendly and teaching-focused. EPIC EMR. Retina time noted as high-learning. Basic-ophtho cases assigned via PowerPoint with a case report at rotation end. Main caveat: VA paperwork burden.

Paraphrased from rotator survey responses. Names and identifying details removed.
