What is working at Kaiser like for a psychiatrist?
They are actively seeking psychiatrists in my area. I know someone who has worked
with them for 15 years & is very happy to collect the regular paycheck. From what i can gather, they work the
family medicine hard but psychiatry I am not so sure. I like the fact everything
seems to be nicely integrated, you can refer for therapy easily and you have access to primary care/other specialties under the same roof. The golden handcuffs are enticing too..... But it sounds too perfect. What is the...

Preventive Medicine Residency Programs
Can someone is or who has applied to, is currently in or has graduated from a Preventive Medicine Residency programs talk about their experiences? I know that there are some programs that allow residents to apply to Preventive Medicine Residencies after one year of primary care residency. Others seem to require two years or seem to be set up as fellowship programs (after a completion of a primary care residency program). Can someone speak more to these differences and the pros and cons of...

Lifestyle specialty question? Primary care versus something competitive?
Hello! I've been mulling this over for a long time now and wanted to get some input. I just started M3 at a T20 USMD. I always thought I would do a specialty with more flexibility (IM, FM) so I could do residency in an urban area and I've always loved preventative healthcare/checkups, but now I'm considering derm or optho simply because I'm loving all the rotations and also like clinic a lot, and recently have been weighing the attending lifestyle more--to have time to build a family...

What does Sports Med allow you to do over FM alone for MSK conditions?
Hi all, sorry if this is in the wrong place. M4 applying FM this year, I was just wondering what exactly (e.g. procedures or management of more conditions) a Sports Med fellowship allows me to do vs. practicing straight out of FM residency for MSK type issues. I'd like to have a 65-75% Primary Care and 25-35% MSK split in my ideal practice and I'm a bit on the fence in terms of how much I should be considering fellowship. (Source: Student Doctor Network)
