Excellent advice here as always - thank you. Just finished my ob/gyn shelf today and will work on researching these different programs over the weekend.

Woot- As far which niche, my subspecialty interests in EM I want to explore more are: prehospital/critical care/ disaster medicine/sports med, but part of what I like about EM is that you have to embrace being a generalist as welll since one has to be able to evaluate everything. I did meet one SF doc during a hyperbarics course I took who was into undersea medicine and had a pretty nice gig on key west.

FXCO- I know MCV is tier one, but for internships forth year its about picking a good spot to train in your interests, getting exposed to other hospitals, and meeting new people in the field so one can land themselves a spot in a residency. And so people can meet you and determine if you are a competent and cool person to work with. MCV is great, but looking to see what other places are like as well.
