Rotator reports10 reports · paraphrased

hands-on

19-20Two rotators in 2019/20 described a busy, blue-collar rotation with substantial OR time across subspecialties, heavier scut work, and variable call volume. Rotators reported strong resident culture, a defined rotator role, and a strong peds service. Dating-friendly scheduling with the coordinator was noted.
18-19Three rotators in 2018/19 described a well-rounded program with strong peds training, helpful fellows, approachable leadership, and residents operating at high volume. Rotators noted heavy PGY2/PGY3 call offset by new intern night float and expanded PA support, plus two months of protected research time as a PGY3.
16-17Rotator in 2016/17 described a 50-applicants-for-5-spots interview structure with three 30-minute interviews, major investment in new facilities and faculty under the current chair, plans to add a sixth resident per year, and expansion in joints and tumor. A group Q&A with leadership was included.
15-16Two rotators in 2015/16 described a hands-on, operative-heavy program within an academic powerhouse, a strong teaching culture across the institution, and a diverse resident group. Rotators noted a more intense atmosphere than some peer programs.
14-15Two rotators in 2014/15 described a strong academic program in a transition period, with a newly hired chair with a trauma background, abundant research, and good fellowship placement. Rotators noted prior faculty turnover and limited resident-to-resident socializing outside work.

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