Integrated Plastic Surgery Resident
Why Iowa
The staff are committed to resident education. They put alot of effort into one on one education with residents, which I appreciate. The comradery and friendship amongst the residents and staff is unique and makes the learning environment all the more enjoyable. Iowa itself is easy living - Cost of living is very reasonable on a resident salary. There's plenty to do downtown in Iowa City, fantastic restaurants, and its and easy drive to many big midwest cities or other places on the weekends.
