  • 18-19Two rotators in 2018/19 described a large rotator pool (~10/month) with interviews offered at the end of the rotation, multi-site experience (main, VA, Shriners), strong academic schedule, and heavy trauma volume tempered by shared coverage.
  • 17-18Two rotators in 2017/18 described Level 1 trauma volume, faculty engagement in the OR, no fellows aside from hand, strong community feel among residents, and main hospital located in Maywood with most residents living in the city.
  • 14-15Rotator in 2014/15 described a well-organized interview day, cohesive residents, and some faculty turnover to other Chicago programs with relatively limited research infrastructure.
