This is probably a weird question, but I've noticed at quite a few of the Rads residency programs that are often mentioned as "top" programs or highly ranked (I realize this is subjective), the Program Directors are pretty young (finished fellowship < 10 years ago). Whereas at some other programs the PDs are more clinically experienced (meaning they have practiced longer).
Just curious what your thoughts are about this, or if this is irrelevant? From my understanding the PDs kind of organize the program and ensure the administration. So a younger PD could have some fresh innovative thoughts, although a more seasoned PD brings the experience.
Anyway, just an observation, and was curious if the experience of the PD has any impact on the training program, or if it really doesn't matter much?
