Martin Louis the King Jr. Posted September 2, 2011 Report Share Posted September 2, 2011 Does anyone know anything about the neurosurgery programs across Canada and how they compared to one another? Which school is best (eg.has most success on the board exam at the end of residency)? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dashley Posted September 18, 2011 Report Share Posted September 18, 2011 From what I have heard Calgary and Toronto are the best neuro programs - on what grounds exactly not sure. I would be for warned about Calgary though - I wouldn't call it the most collegial atmosphere, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCat'sMeow Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 I've heard the same about the Toronto program, you'll probably have to spend some time at the programs to decide for yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLengr Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 For Toronto I heard from someone I know who matched to Neurosurg. that there is an option do to a 4 year PhD in the middle. 3 + 4 +3. Sounded nuts to me. He liked the idea though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmorelan Posted September 19, 2011 Report Share Posted September 19, 2011 For Toronto I heard from someone I know who matched to Neurosurg. that there is an option do to a 4 year PhD in the middle. 3 + 4 +3. Sounded nuts to me. He liked the idea though. Isn't that pretty common anyway for neuro guys (thought getting a phd was normal for them)? I also heard that was actually why the residency salary pay scale went up to year 9 anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
