Summa Health System / NEOMED
hands-on
  • 17-18Rotator in 2017/18 described a mid-size hybrid program with strong operative development due to a second-year schedule split between six months of call and six months of dedicated service time. Home call for senior years and moonlighting are available. Clinic exposure was described as lighter than average.
  • 14-15Rotator in 2014/15 described a community experience with high operative volume, a cohesive small resident group, and two main training sites. Akron location was a personal-fit consideration.
Summa Health Systems
hands-on
  • 20-21Rotator in 2020/21 described strong operative volume through a private-practice partnership, adequate onc and spine exposure for a community program, and supportive leadership. No fellows and daily morning didactics were noted. Post-call day was not standard and research opportunities were limited.

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