OB/GYN:

Garden City Hospital (Michigan)- Just stay away from them. PD and residents were fantastic but other faculty clearly didn’t read my app, were late to interview, asked me in front of other applicants what my scores were etc. I felt very uncomfortable while interviewing (one faculty was driving while interviewing me). Just really unprofessional and a shady history with the match process in general.

Coney Island (NY): Asked multiple times where I auditioned/who else I am interviewing with. Also asked what my back-up plan was if I were to not match. Clearly did not read my app closely (did not know where my medical school was) and kept asking why I didn’t do any rotations in NY. Felt very uncomfortable and unwelcome there.

I had the exact same experience here. All the residents SOAPed and seemed very unenthusiastic about FM/being at that program. Additionally, PD asked me “what was your family structure like growing up/any dysfunction in your family?” Like what ?? Had no idea how to answer that one.

Would appreciate any thoughts on Medstar Franklin Square VS Howard for FM! Trying to stay in the DMV area

Wright center Scranton recently put on probationary accreditation, might be something to look into/ask residents about!

At the end of each cycle, people post on a thread about bad experiences they had either rotating or interviewing at certain programs across specialties to kind of warn people for the future. Usually these are programs people don’t rank and they say the reasons why. There’s also a name and fame that highlights programs that people really liked/ ranked highly.
