Interview Experiences Several 1 on 1 interviews, sandwhiches for lunch, short tour, a resident and fellow spoke to the group. Great experience, Kind of weird questions from their research associate but fun all the same. Fairly informal, short discussion on program followed by 6 one-on-one interviews Short presentation followed by 8ish 1on1 interviews. Very laid back. Walking tour. Rotated and knew all faculty well. Good, well organized 8 individual interviews with soon-to-be PD, chair, and chief resident. Impressive collegiality amongst faculty and residents; also very obvious residents are very close 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17
Program Advantages Most plastics in US, 250 phakos, 50+ refracticve cases, grads have gone to Bascom and USC. Great instruction. 2 VA's, Navy station in Jax, Shands, and outpatient centers. New refractive center coming. HUGE cataract volume, great autonomy, no resident run indigent clinic Top notch clinical and surgical training. VA has one of the highest volumes in the country, spend lots of time there. Great autonomy at VA while good supervised time at the main clinics. Residents match well into competitive specialties. Huge surgical numbers, including refractive experience (80-100). Huge surgical training.
VERY impressive surgical numbers, decent area Great VA right across the street, silly high cataract numbers, very nice PD, north Florida climate Well prepared surgically (avg 350+ cataracts, 95th%tile plastics) with one of busiest and recently renovated VA eye clinics. New Eye center planned to be finished by August 2018. 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17
Program Disadvantages Some grads had trouble matching in plastics recently, small faculty, cornea and retina fellows do many of those cases. No resident run indigent clinic (it goes both ways) and in Gainesville which is a fine enough town, but 2 hours from a major airport. Didactics are not the most well organized but seem to cover most major topics. Not many big names. Too much autonomy at the VA? No county. Small faculty (1-2/subspecialty). No residents clinic/limited autonomy, high faculty turnover High cataract numbers, but at the expense of surgical breadth Doesn't have the name and program reputation. Well respected in cornea and comprehensive, but maybe weak at glaucoma and oculoplastics. 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17 17
