Thanks so much mpp. I had lost hope that anyone would reply. I know my interest fields are not interesting to others, however I have an uphill battle to get into a neurosurgery residency. I'm foreign born and trained abroad (India/UK), moved here for postdoc fellowship in TBI, and am considering staying in USA. I do have greencard, so visa isn't an issue. Thanks anyways, I didn't know about Iowa, Memphis, Dallas and Emory being...

people always said that to me before my rotations. bad outcomes, big egos, financially driven blah blah. the truth is once in a hospital your title means nothing. IM docs hate getting dumped on, ER docs are 5th medical students, Gen surgs hate Neuro surg and vice versa and so on. everyday is a battle between services in the resident training environment. and for the financial aspect post grad wise, ask any recent grad about the job market and...

The attrition rate is likely somewhere around 10 percent. Most people know what they're getting into (I hope). Most programs offer a good deal of trauma as most academic centers are trauma centers. The real question should be which programs don't offer much training in trauma and in reality there are few. Some of the cities in which there are several programs (NYC for example) may actually be lighter in trauma because of all the...

The nature of brain injury is that there are no easy ways to get the answers to your questions.
Nobody knows the chance of full recovery but at this point it is not zero. Therefore, you just must be patient.
It can be anywhere from days to years to, unfortunately, never. Just take it one day at a time and hope for the best.
Not the answer you're hoping for but it's just the nature of ...

Thanks for the helpful thread. I had a couple of questions that weren't so easy to look up. What determines if the NS training is 5 years vs 7 or 8? From what I heard is that the 5 years is just the residency, and then the extra 2 years are for the fellowship for the total of 7.
Also, as someone pointed out, it probably ...

As is often the case in medicine, the answer to your question is that it depends. In general, a fellowship is not required to be successful in private practice. The vast majority of training programs in the country will adequately prepare you to become a private practice neurosurgeon.
However, if you want to fully subspecialize in private practice and/or go into academics, you will need ...
