Interview Experiences
 Very good.
4 or 5 interviewers
Long interview day involving tour of their simulation center (WISER), information sessions, 5 interviews (PD, chair of residency selection committee, director of intern year portion of categorical program, 2 other faculty members), lunch, tour, group meet
Somewhat disorganized.
loved it here
really LONG interview day (7-3:30!)
Dinner the night before with the residents at local restaurant was great. Long interview day starts around 7:30 am and finishes around 4:30. 5 x 15 minute interviews with PD and several other faculty. Low stress. Tour of UPMC Presby/Montefiore the other h
Hotel was nice, dinner was OK. 5 interviews that were all very relaxed. Longer interview day--didn't leave until 4:30PM despite interviewing in the AM.
Impressive, welcoming.
My secret #1, fell to #2 due to high cost of living.

Program Advantages
A very resident friendly program..I guess one of the programs with good reputation, have a wholesome exposure and then are good to the residents.
great sim center, research $
Just about everything (seriously). Pain, regional, CT, peds, OB, research/academics. UPMC has a huge critical care presence, although not much anesthesiology-CC presence. UPMC is clearly dedicated to resident training/education and not so interested in u
Well known and well respected department.
the ideal program. happy residents, unbelievable case opportunities, friendly chair and PD.
faculty is really approachable, easy to get publications here - many residents have written book chapters, international rotations in Sicily, Ireland, and two week mission trips, strong didactic programs, strong ICU and transplant experiences
LOTS of regional/acute pain/chronic pain. Residents not primary work force (CRNA's within system). LARGE case load. Residents seemed happy.
Great intern year. Regional, pain and ICU are very strong rotations. PD is very resident friendly.
Everything; diversity, moonlighting, complexity of cases, resident comraderie (9/10), PD looking out for the residents, work hours are great, fellowship match and national/world connections are top rate. Location was also key. Matched here #1 and got a ph

Program Disadvantages
couldn't think of many
residents from 2 other programs in the city share peds cases, plus fellows. chair seems out of touch with residents.
Location?
Volume too large, seemed like residents were almost disposable. Residents with some very odd personalities. I was disappointed by this program; thought I would rank it highly before the interview, but not a good fit for me.
pittsburgh is great, but not awesome. would definitely practice here though.
lots of hospitals for rotations (minimum of 5, ~20 in the system), wasn't really impressed with Pittsburgh
Not many. Traveling back and forth to main hospital for didactics?
Peds and OB seemed comparatively weaker. Limited in-house moonlighting (mostly OB). Personally I'm not huge into Pittsburgh.
Lots of scheduled weekly didactics (protected)
Don�t currently have a chair of the department (having difficulty finding one), Location- city is nice, but still a big city, Many clinical sites (they claim it is a great thing and try heavy to push it� you will work at least 6 different places)--> Could
