Hey guys,
I'm having a little trouble figuring out which Anes-CCM programs to apply to. The Anes-CCM presence at my home institution isn't huge just yet (they are working hard to strengthen), so I'm having depend more than I like on word of mouth from some of our cardiac guys.
I was wondering if some of you more experienced folk could tell us a little about what you have heard about some of the following Anes-CCM programs. My main questions are just what you have heard about their reputation, what they are good at (which ones are known for great cardiac training vs transplant training, which are known for being research heavy, etc).
I already know my top choice programs (Stanford, UCSF, UW, UPMC), looking to round out my list. The main things I am looking for is good, balanced training and an educational environment. I like MICU patients and def want to get 1-2 months of MICU experience, or experience seeing MICU patients in a med-surg ICU. I don't think pedi training would add much, looking to avoid that. Also, would love to know what names carry in the CCM circle, as I may end up going abroad and a good name matters for a lot out there.
- UCLA
- UCSD
- OHSU
- UAB
- UPenn
- Emory
- WUSTL
- UMich
Thanks in advance for your help! Feel free to PM if you prefer.
