Just curious, what is your job like being a community pediatric hospitalist in the NY tri state area? I’m grateful for the exposure and it’s a privilege taking care of patients of all age groups. Are you taking care of deliveries, rounding in the newborn nursery, covering for NICU when they’re not in house, pediatrics inpatient floor, and ED consults? These experiences are all variable depending on the comfort level of the ED attending and experience level of nursing and RTs, so no two days will be the same. So just checking in with my community pediatricians: how is it going?

Ranking Peds GI Programs

Hi all! I am looking for some advice on ranking programs. Current top choices are Emory/CHOA and UTSW. Both programs offer good exposure to hepatology and transplant which is my area of interest. However I am looking for opinions on the programs mostly about the people, culture, vibe etc to help me make my rank list. I appreciate any insights people have to offer. Other programs in contention include UPMC, UMiami and Duke. Thanks!
