Buffalo I think is a hidden gem
Case volume is tremendous Leadership is fabulous And research support is better than most other places Spine department from what I hear is picking up, complex spine fellowship and robot spine, witg advance lateral techniques not many places do in the country Also started a functional fellowship

I am a current PGY-5 (Matthew McPheeters). Overall Buffalo is a great place to train. We are proud of our many strengths and our faculty are working hard to close the small gaps that do exist
Research - We have a full-time medical editor and illustrator, which makes a huge difference in the getting research projects past the final stages to publication (ie. Manuscript preparation/formatting and submission). We also have three research fellows to help residents with data collection and stats. Volume - Everyone knows Buffalo for our Endovascular volume, but open volume is strong with 19 surgical faculty without any major gaps in the various subspecialties. To date I have logged over 1,300 cases Autonomy - This will vary based on your year of residency and clinical site, but overall I have had no issues with the degree of surgical autonomy and felt it to change appropriately with my level of training Culture - We work hard, but the residents get along well. Drs. Levy and Reynolds are very supportive of the residents, which is evident by the department building us a new expansive resident space, including our own call room, locker room/shower, and gym. - The program is very family friendly, I myself am married and have two kids Etc. - This is obviously a biased review of the program, but overall I enjoy working with our faculty and am happy to be training here - Check out our program video here: https://youtu.be/C5cKYbkWOUM
