Program Information
Staff/Faculty/Chairman: The staff are excellent. Dr. Marcus is probably the nicest guy I have ever met and he seems to really care about his residents. The trauma attendings at Metro are amazing.
Didactics/Teaching: There are numerous conferences, lectures and grand rounds. Teaching is the best I've seen among different programs.
Operating Experience: I gave this place a 9 instead of a 10 due to lower volume. With that being said, you will probably not find a place with as well-rounded an operative experience. Despite the lower numbers, residents come out of here comfortable stepping into a general practice, although all pursue fellowship. The program is weaker in sports. Strong in everything else, especially trauma.
Clinic Experience: Clinic is clinic. Not too much. Not too little. No attending breathing down your neck.
Research Opportunities: This is CWRU.
Residents: Residents are all very cool. All the chiefs and residents went out of their way to show me around and make sure I felt comfortable with the place. Residents were more jock type compared to other programs I've been at. About 1/2 are married.
Lifestyle: Sex, sports, and alcohol.
Location/Housing: Picked this place to rotate based on reputation and it's close to my grandparents. However, when I first drove into town I thought "what a dump". But after 4 weeks, Cleveland is not that bad. Suburbs are nice. Downtown is clean. The football team sucks, but that's what satellite is for. Housing is cheap. Can buy a 3-5 bedroom house for the same price as a 1 bedroom condo in Chicago. Simple guy with simple lifestyle.
Overall Rotation Experience/Conclusion: Overall, I had a fantastic time at CWRU. I was impressed by Metro and a number of faculty. The facilities are top notch. I am seeking a residency with a great trauma experience and will rank CWRU very highly, if not number 1.
Qualification
I rotated as a medical student at this program
