    This program offers the greatest amount of elective time out of any transitional year program in the country. This allows unparalleled ability to personalize the year and engage in rotations that are the most beneficial for one’s advanced specialty. I am going into diagnostic radiology and am able to rotate through a wide variety of medical and surgical subspecialties at this program, all with reasonable hours and great teaching, and I feel exceptionally well-prepared and confident to read all types of imaging in radiology residency as a result.
