🎉Congrats! Hoping they will continue to pull off the active applicant list as time goes on.  Happy with my current choice (and blessed to have choices!) but still holding out hope for Wake 🙂

I recently interviewed with WF and had questions regarding the clinical curriculum. From interviewing this cycle, I realized that while certain programs were part of large urban academic medical centers for their didactic year, it was common to turf students to the suburbs/rural areas at "non-affiliated" clinics/hospitals/etc during the clinical year. IMO, that was a significant turnoff. A major attraction to WF was and is having a major teaching hospital/level 1 trauma center in Winston-Salem. I reviewed the clinical documentation and there's mention of one mandatory rotation there but also details on rotations up to 50 miles away.

Overall, what's the story with the Wake clinical year? For individuals who want various options at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, are they truly available? Is inpatient experience available besides EM (ex: inpatient IM, inpatient peds, etc).

I know this is one of the original PA programs and they are highly ranked; however, your feedback would be helpful.
