What are your general comments?

"The whole experience was very positive. The day was not too strenuous, except for taking the half hour shuttle ride to Hahnemann hospital where my interview was held (it takes half an hour because it's all local streets). Just enjoy your time at Philadelphia. Be sure to go to Pat's and grab a couple of Philly Cheessteak Sandiches before you leave town. " Report Response
