Interview Experiences
Excellent. Very friendly, welcoming.
Most laid back residents in country, everyone seems very happy. Ranked #1
Great day. I feel they are trying to increase resident research.
Very well-coordinated.
Ranked #2
The experience was pretty laid-back. We had 4 interviews, 3 faculty and 1 chief-resident. Mostly they were typical, getting to know you, but 1 faculty member actually asked questions like 'what is the next big innovation in radiology' and 'tell me about a
People were pretty friendly. Residents were helpful. Kind of a long day with the tour of Grady. You're responsible for getting to Grady yourself. Was a little intimidating since it's not in the best part of town.
Well organized (for the most part) with good food. Opportunities to talk with residents. Big program with alot of hospitals - thus exposure to alot of diverse pathology
Relaxed interview day, everone was very kind
There was a dinner, but I couldn't attend Received a phone call in January on a Friday night to schedule an interview 7:30AM-2:00 after lunch you go to Grady to take a tour it is about 20 minutes away they provide a shuttle, I decided to drive because G
Interviewed with Kevin from The Office's dad! Long day with a tour of Grady, but it's important to see what Grady is like, aka pretty run down facilities but a gem in terms of pathology seen.
Wonderful program. Ranked #2, considered for #1. Dinner with residents night prior. Interviews well-organized, go to county hospital at end of day - takes some extra time but you need to see it. Very large program - 16/year.
Laid back, large group split up into morn and afternoon interviews.
So hard to decide...this ended up my number 2 but I was really torn.
Dinner was great.
Great day Atlanta ppl in general are just ridiculously courteous & helpful which made the whole day and experience so warm

Program Advantages
Large residency class. Residents were exuberant about their training and their prospective profession.
Good education, good IR and hands-on experience, busy county hospital.
great diversity of training-Huge county hospital (Grady, which now has pacs), univ hosp, VA, childrens hosp, ortho hosp; busy calls but overall LIGHT call schedule
good pathology
Excellent program with tons of experience.
Big program, solid faculty, and great research available. Cost of living second to none if willing to live outside the perimeter.
Great research if that's your thing. Strong fellowships.
Good location Great cost of living Good program, with high-volume and good mixture of pathology, but still in a relaxed setting
Grady.
Program size = good call schedule Grady - Could be good or bad- your call Newer chair of program has big plans and seems very motivated. Residents seemed happy Grady has a solid pacs system now
Good research, good IR, love ATL
PET-MRI being rolled out seemed cool. Nice city. Residents see tons of pathology at Grady.
Good vibe from staff and residents, everyone seemed happy. Top-rate teaching and research. Atlanta is big/diverse.
residents love it, Atlanta is great, and travel is so easy.
Atlanta, nice weather, PD pushing to make this a stronger academic program
Probably the best group of residents in terms of personality I have met on the trail. I would have loved to be co-residents. They seem to love what they do.
Emory basically owns Atlanta and all its suburbs in the sense that all of the crazy pathology will come there so you see a ton of volume w great variety beautiful breast center
Strong neuro and busy VIR. Volume massive. Night autonomy. Built in vacation. Various pathology at different hospitals. Residents diverse and happy. Clicked with these residents maybe the best.

Program Disadvantages
Fate of major training hospital (Grady) is uncertain.
Grady Hospital is ghetto even as county hospitals go. No PACS when I interviewed.
Have to drive between hospitals.
Very vague on when Grady would be getting a full PACS system
little moonlighting
Grady is super ghetto/lack of full pacs. Fellows do most of the procedures
Atlanta traffic. Lots of fellows.
Atlanta traffic.
Atlanta traffic is horrible. Spend way more time at Grady than they make you think, and the residents we saw there were not smiling. Program director is trying to make Emory become a Top 10 research program which is won't be.
None really
Grady.
Have to cover something like 5 hospitals thus learning all the systems might be a slight challenge. Grady is not in a safe area & got the impression residents were kind of on their own there.
Some people didnt like Grady or having to drive between the 2 hospitals
Spend about 1/3 of the time at Grady
Traffic in ATL can be overwhelming.
Travel between multiple institutions.
Can't think of too many
I was not a fan of Grady and having to rotate through so many hospitals. Don't like the idea of 2-week rotations
Atlanta traffic is what pushed the decision over the edge.
Atlanta? Wasn't big on it.
At Emory (1 of 3 campuses you rotate in) you won't do much of the IR due to fellow-heaviness In Atlanta (if that's far from family)
MSK slightly weaker. Not a fan of Atlanta.
