What impressed you positively?

My student host was absolutely AWESOME. Her and her boyfriend made me feel so relaxed. The other people who were interviewing on my day were conversational and the conference room that we waited in was not totally uncomfortable like it usually is in an interview. The hospital seemed really nice and is a level one trauma center. In addition, medic soldiers who are in Iraq train here (that impressed me.)

The facilities look like they could use some updating. Especially the patho lab.

St. Louis can be kinda a frightening city!
