Interview experiences
- NYMC (Westchester) (anonymous): Seemed to be a fellow friendly program, with 1 fellow and flexible call schedule. Hospital PCI volume ~450, 30 STEMI;s, >100 structural heart procedures (TAVR, MitralClip, Watchman) Will give offer around the end of Feb.
-NYU (anonymous). They offered four interview days (they maybe had ~ 12 candidates: Penn State x2, Loma Linda, Albert Einstein). They had 3 spots (1 spot went to an internal candidate, 2 spots to external candidates). Interviewers are easygoing and will ask about your research experience and interests. Paper application (not in ERAS). This is a research-oriented program. Fellows cover NYUMC, VA and Bellevue. They are proud of their peripheral experience. You can do an additional year of research, structural or peripheral. However, they warned that second year positions can be offered to external candidates. As usual, the program director is nice.
- Utah (ICguy): 1 year - 2 fellows, 2 year - 1 fellow. Great coronaries, and great structural, 200 TAVR, ASD, VSD melody valves, biopsies, cardiomems and what not but you have to do extra year for that.
-UToledo (ICguy): surprising a good place. underdog. Fellow already got 270 PCI and 100+ peripheral, around 10 ASD, no TAVR, but apparently, they are trying to bring that. but if you want just coronaries and peripheral great program. they take only one fellow and they have internals so fingers crossed.
- UW (anonymous): Saturday. 3 internal/7 external candidates (Columbia, Mayo, Cleveland Clinic, UCLA, MGH, Albert Einstein College of Medicine). Offered positions to 1 internal and 1 external candidates. Nice interviewers (only 1 technical question). Selection/rejection process took 3-4 weeks.
