Program Advantages
VA experience, good numbers, small program without fellows so lots of primary exposure, call schedule not bad
Awesome chair. Friendly faculty. Facilities all right there. Very good surgical volume for Chicago (150+ cats; good in other subs as well). Very good/busy clinic experience. Residents work hard, but are happy, and see a lot.
Strong surgical training, new facilities
