Program Disadvantages
retina doc questionable on staff. plastics doc recently left for private practice but still takes residents in the second year for the plastics rotation
Smaller program, the relaxed training may not be for everyone. Not all specialties consistently represented on faculty, although very strong cornea.
relatively few subspecialty exposure given more of comprehensive ophthalmology program, poor fellowship match
