Interview Experiences
4 interviews, including Steven Ryan, Ron Smith and two others
horrible, very poor recruiting effort, only possible resident interaction was at optional resident dinner (no residents during the entire interview day), grumpy program coordinator

Program Disadvantages
Spend 2 of 3 years at LA County, not Doheny. Doheny faculty generally don't attend at LA County.
financial difficulties (not enough money to purchase simulator), in-house call, no permanent wet lab facilities
county - very busy - overnight in house call. rounds start at 6am
Doheny is not affiliated with USC most of big name faculty have left, unpredictable rankings in the next few years
only young faculty remain, no more doheny
doheny is gone program tries to shake off 'transition' but very clear that big name faculty have left
