Fame & Shame
2025–2026 Derm
3 entries✅1. Highly recommend rotating at/applying to this program for future applicants! The rotation exposes you to many subspecialty clinics and you get tons of practice presenting and working directly with the attendings (most days sitting side by side with them all day in the charting room). Would describe the culture as extremely healthy, residents and attendings were smart, chill, and overall fun to be around. No huge egos, just good vibes and good learning
✅2. Second this ^
❌1. Did an away here and one of the APDs is just incredibly inappropriate and unkind to patients behind their backs. Very weird vibes overall.

did anyone interviewing at tufts tmrw get a list of the interviewers? < nope x2
did anyone else still NOT get their Tufts package?
What are people's thoughts on tufts peds unit shutting down? Should we be worried about derm department as well? << no, derm is a money maker for the hospital. but the news about how they told the residents is upsetting. makes me feel like they don't care (they found out 1 hour before the rest of the general public on a zoom call a la better.com)
When did people get their tufts goodies? I never got one and am wondering if its delayed :(
anyone know why Medstar/Georgetown is under ACGME warning for probation? // The official term is "Continued Accreditation with Warning": Cook County Health and Hospitals System, Mayo Clinic College of Medicine and Science (Rochester), MedStar Health/Washington Hospital Center, Tufts Medical Center, UCLA David Geffen School of Medicine/UCLA Medical Center, University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, Wayne State University School of Medicine. The only program that is on "Probationary Accreditation" is Rush University Medical Center.

Hi! I was just wondering if anyone here had any perspectives on programs in Boston outside of Harvard so BU, Tufts, UMass, etc.? Or programs close to Boston like Brown? I am on the east coast but want to end up in Boston because my fiance and family (and his family) are in Boston, but I have v average stats for derm as far as board scores, pubs, etc. I'm an M3 submitting apps next fall and I'm not sure if any of those programs are within reach / should I do an away rotation at those programs or they mostly take home students (or RY students) / if anyone had any perspective about what the culture is like at those programs! I would love to hear ANY perspectives if anyone has any and would be willing to share with me! Thank you!!
