"I interviewed at Missoula's family Med residency. right off the bat I thought Missoula did a really good job of selling something that's very important to me which is Montana. I think they really reinforced how wonderful it is that is how good it would be to be home and that makes this interview very difficult. interview looked very similar to prior interviews following the same template and format. I'm gonna talk to faculty will actually thought I'd really good interaction with an OK interaction with the secondary medical student that interviewed me. I did not get to spend that much time with the program director nor did I have really a conversation at all with the system program director so that was a little bit disappointing. I think I would have liked it benefited from that opportunity. this interview felt a little bit more about me with the questions. I feel like this program really wanted to get to know me instead of just sitting there with blank questions be like can you ask us more questions so that interview processes stark contrast. the first one it felt like they were genuinely trying to assess how well I fit in with them which I think part of this I will say that coming into this interview I did know things about it and most of the comments that I have known about Missoula were not the most positive things so there may have been a little bit of implicit bias coming this interview. I will say throughout most of it they did a good job of dispelling some of it I didn't feel like the fact they care and I think the faculty or people that would get along with and be really good fit however I do think that there were some other parts of the program that I may not fit in as well. They were pretty honest about their point of care ultrasound use it sounds like they use it. It's largely resident driven and some of the faculty use it but some of them are very honest about not using it much day-to-day at all. they don't really have the greatest access to get them students without having to come from some money at times and other or as many opportunities like take a butterfly with you in the hospital. their sportsman integration seemed may it doesn't seem super strong so that's something that I think I would not have the greatest opportunity as well. the two hospital systems is something that doesn't seem like a make or break into single little bit annoying like having to go from different place to different place. there's also an interesting dynamic to where they don't follow their patients in the hospital that usually sometimes they just take direct admins and it's like kind of allocated by hospitalists. that seems like it could be a recipe for disaster with work being pawned off to each group and could really create some poor dynamics. so far though I'd say neither of those are really make or break by any reason or by by any means however I'm not sure if they make the strongest physicians. there that's the tough balance of I want to have will work in life outside of medical school but I also don't want to be incompetent. it sounds like Missoula does really good job of giving people quality of life and you know like minimal work call schedule. seems pretty Dang easy but one of the only things I've ever heard about that program is that they feel that they produced Co dependent and frankly not the most skilled young physicians and I feel like I deserve a little bit more of an education than that. when asking one of the residents what they would change about the program one of them said that they wanted to have larger cohorts so that people wouldn't be alone during their rotations without any real substantiation to that they did more like basing it off of seeing other programs similar size doing different things they just didn't want to work some of the rotations by themselves and just something you don't see in a lot of residencies like that's my arm add so that was a little bit of number both for red flag for them being ever. so possibly living up to that stereotype that's been perpetuated about them possibly being a little bit dependant. overall the home part of it really impressed me it's it was nice to see home I do miss it and Missoula can sell that to me better than anyone else however I'm just not sure that's their residency program is super robust in Missoula right now and I'm not positive I would get the best training if I attended there. overall I'd still feel pretty comfortable as far as they fit for me giving it maybe a seven or an 8 out of 10 however with the largest knocks them being I think there might be a little bit too much handholding going on there."
