Can any home students or rotators comment on U Chicago? What's the environment like? Do the residents seem to like it there? I've heard mixed reviews from people who knew the program 10 years ago when it had a different chair, so i wanted to know if it has changed < I'm assuming you're talking about Dr. Shea when he was Section Chief (since Derm is a division of Internal Medicine) at U Chicago Pritzker. Yup, you'd be correct about how it was around that time. A lot of home students at Pritzker at that time (have no idea now w/Pritzker students) as much as possible tried to match somewhere else for Derm because of him, although obviously one can't be too picky with programs in terms of matching into this specialty since Derm is Derm. < TY - this matches what I heard. Is the culture better now? < I mean even right now on their Derm resident page, only ONE of the derm residents is from U Chicago-Pritzker: https://dermed.uchicago.edu/people/ < New PD and Section Chief started recently (2019?), so that would have little to no impact on current residents (ie they just started as current residents were applying)
