Hello all,
My wife has graduated from an IM program 2 years ago and she has her heart set on Pulmonary/CC fellowship (it just didn't work out with respect to our life for her to apply straight out of residency). I am a practicing EM doctor, but getting a bit weary of the field in some ways, and also tired of seeing it become increasingly dominated by corporations. I have considered in the past doing a Palliative Care fellowship as a career change, so this might be a decent opportunity. However, I don't want to hurt my wife's chances of matching in any way. Is there a way for us to couples match that would allow that? Or perhaps would looking for a spot outside the match, or the following year be a better idea?
Thank you in advance.
