Hi guys,
I’m sorry if I come off vague but I really don’t want to put anything that would identify me.
I got placed on probation intern year for professionalism reasons. ACGME notified and the full shabang. Thankfully I was taken off halfway through for exceptional improvement and have been in good standing ever since.
I’m a third year Medicine resident now and will be graduating on time this year. Only thing is I feel like my history of probation will hinder me from being able to land a decent future job. Most people I’ve asked about this say not to worry but when I questioned whether or not they knew of anyone in a similar situation they say no.
I’m not making any excuses for being placed on probation. I understand why it was done. If anything I’ve overcompensated like a son of a gun and have been more active in hospital committees, teaching, research, etc. so that’s a plus I guess.
I’m just looking for honest answers if anyone can provide them. Thank you
