imgnoncanadian Posted May 8, 2023 Report Share Posted May 8, 2023 Hello there, I am currently an FM PGY1, considering doing a PGY3/ fellowship in hospital medicine. I was wondering if a family physician who has done/is going through this path wouldn't mind sharing more about the experience. Thank you!

Rorzo Posted May 11, 2023 Report Share Posted May 11, 2023 Make sure you have a purpose to it. It is typically quite possible to become competent enough in hospitalist work through residency, especially if you focus your electives in being competent in those areas. There's also no shortage of hospitals more than willing to hire hospitalists with no additional training as well. There's really only value in pursuing the additional training if you don't feel comfortable doing hospitalist work solo after graduation or if you want to work in a specific place that requires/prefers it (only places I've heard of were CAMH and one of the acute hospitals in Toronto I can't recall) Arztin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
