- Attended interview
- Matched here (Ranked # 1)
- Interview Experience:
| They give you a ton of information about the program in the beginning of the day. PD is really cool, residents are laid back. |
- Program Advantages:
| Split clinical base over two years so 6 months of anesthesia during intern year. Busy OB. PD is amazing and would cut his arm off if it would improve your training. Didactics are second-to-none. |
- Program Disadvantages:
| Critical care is fairly weak. |

- Program Advantages:
| Ummm....I guess critical care is pretty good. |
- Program Disadvantages:
| Hardly any didactics, residents seemed to just be trying to have as little work as possible. |

- Program Advantages:
| Big name, lots of research, very strong critical care. |
- Program Disadvantages:
| Lots of research, intern year and beyond are very demanding (perhaps overly so), seemed like everyone was in competition with each other. |

| Lots of options for intern year at UTKMC, friendly people. |
