Rotator reports5 reports · paraphrased

hands-on

23-24Rotator in 2023/24 reported high operative volume but concerns about junior resident workload, with trauma call split with another program and no night float. Didactics and the out-of-town rotations were noted as challenges.
21-22Rotator in 2021/22 described strong operative experience at UMC, valuable autonomy running rooms at the Lafayette site, and solid research infrastructure. Recommended the program for training.
20-21Two rotators in 2020/21 described a hands-on program with early operative exposure, a new UMC trauma facility, rotations in Baton Rouge and Lafayette with provided housing, and a teaching culture carried between classes. Call on trauma is heavy but shorter than prior reports suggested.
