Mayo #1 because it is a top academic ortho hospital. Opportunities here are endless. Great and balanced operative experience staring right away 2nd yr. 1-on-1 mentorship from leaders in the field. Top of the game in research and didactics. Mayo system, people, and experince is unparalleled. Great residents. Location not right for everyone but great for my family.

Really hoping to match here.

WashU--location, love the PD, love the residents, one of the most "balanced" top programs

f/u from my previous post

I rotated at different programs in east coast, chicago, and southeast
I even interviewed at big names like cleveland clinic but I think Penn state was definitely the one with extremely well balance of operative/clinical/didactic experience. Attendings are all from big names and all the residents get excellent fellowships.
I even heard from a non-biased source that penn state's residency program is "best in PA, even better than UPenn" so I ended up ranking Penn State #1 and Cleveland Clinic #2.
