What are your general comments?

"Very comfortable environment. THe physician met me and took me to a room with a large conference table, we talked for an hour and 15 minutes (really, a 20 minute interview is a BAD thing when you are suppose to have an hour people). Then we finished and I met my student interviewer, and went to the same room. We talked for about an hour. Very relaxed, but challenging ethical questions. It ended with a tour of the fantastic facilities. " Report Response
