    Usually USMLE scores get uploaded in few hrs-3 days. Most of the programs downloading information today have done it multiple times today. I think it's an automated program that does it for them.

    endovascular treatment of erectile dysfunction?

    ...and then Urology takes over from here. Seriously, IR needs to take ownership of procedures like this to make sure that "medicine" keeps progressing and not become another cash cow for another speciality.
