Pathology vs. Lab Animal Residency
Hi,
I'm a 3rd-year vet student and am on the fence about pursuing a pathology or lab animal residency. Can someone who has done either please give their opinion on the application process, the program as a whole, and their experience? What were boards like? Did you go in straight after graduation or work GP for a few years?
I'm considering the following programs:
UGA, Emory, UC Davis, Illinois, and UF
Many thanks in advance from a confused and anxious student worried about the next 1.5 year 🙃 (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Midlife crises as pathologist (M44)
I have been working as a pathologist for 15 years and feel like it's becoming assembly line work, the same routine day in and day out. Even on the home front, things have become a bit dull. It's probably a typical midlife crisis, and in this context, I don't find the pathologist life particularly uplifting. Are there any books out there that can offer perspectives and techniques?

Reference text for non podiatry residents
Hi, hoping to get some insight. I have family medicine residents rotating with me for about 2 weeks in the office at a time. Their experience with foot and ankle pathology is quite limited. Do you guys have a quick reference in mind that I can give them to be better prepared for the rotation? Its mostly an office based rotation.
I was thinking pocket pod but it might be a little too detailed. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Switching from Pathology to FM Advice Needed
Hello everyone,
I am a former PGY-2 pathology resident (completed second year). I was discharged from the program last year due to my lack of progression within the program. I put down the time to studying and getting help, but ultimately that was not enough. I am currently still in good standing with the program director and my pathology attendings. I know I can receive good LORs from them. Since then I have been doing pro-bono consulting work in graduate consulting programs. Upon...

Need advice for 2025 Match (DO student)
Hi everyone,
I'm trying to get an idea of how many pathology programs I should apply to in the upcoming cycle. For some background, I am a fourth year DO student at an established school in the NE graduating off cycle in September and will be participating in the next Match (a cycle later than if I graduated on time). I will be considered a DO Senior for match purposes. This was due to a medical Leave of Absence I took during my third year, it was for severe depression and suicidal...

Anatomic Pathology Residency Questions
Hi! I'm a new member and this is my first time posting! I've found some helpful threads from past years and am hoping you guys can help me. I'm a current 3rd year student and am busy looking into anatomic pathology residency programs to apply to this year.
After doing a bunch of research on my own and talking to the residents at our diagnostic lab (where I work), I've got a few top programs I'm looking at (University of George, NC State, Louisiana State) and wonder if there's any thoughts on...

Is it difficult to match back to New York as a DO for pathology?
I am from NY and will be beginning at MSUCOM later this year. My wife works in NYC and I would love to match back into the city since we envision settling down there. I understand I have to study hard and do well on exams and get all my ducks in a row, but is NYC an unrealistic goal for someone attending a DO program? I'll have taken a few gap years before entering med school and am pretty set on pathology from my previous experiences, not much interest in the super competitive specialties...
