The Thoracic Surgery Residency Program at Chapel Hill. 1994

B R Wilcox
Division of Cardiothoracic Surgery, University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill.

The success of the cardiothoracic surgery residency program in Chapel Hill is due to a number of contributing factors. The first important ingredient is the faculty. Their ability, stability, and dedication, with each faculty member developing an area of expertise, has contributed greatly to the success of our program. The second important aspect is the program design itself--all three years: the first to allow the resident time to reflect on educational priorities and do some innovative thinking; the second and third as chief resident on their respective services--for an entire, continuous year. The third and most important aspect of our program is the quality of the residents we have been able to attract--uniformly a splendid group of individuals who regularly gave more than they received and who continue to be a source of inspiration, hope, and pride for those of us who have been privileged to be their teachers.
