(IS) Ut Health Houston or Texas A & M (Dallas)
Was fortunate enough to get accepted to both schools. Would be coming from growing up in a small town my whole life so either city would be a “better” than where I currently live. I know Houston has a very familial environment and A&M has slightly newer facilities. What are your opinions on which school you’d attend and why? Thanks! (Source: Student Doctor Network)

How to get quality supervision?
I’m several years out of residency. Working at a corporate big-box place in the center of the country.
I want to keep improving, but it’s become hard to get quality supervision at this stage in the game. My colleagues are not a realistic option for a variety of reasons.

I read a lot from quality resources, I post questions here, and get wonderful and helpful...
