What’s the down side?
• Pediatric exposure
• 3 pediatricians in Chilliwack, but…no pediatric admissions
• Out-of-town rotations involve driving
• Fantastic basement suite for Vancouver rotations
• Mileage reimbursement for mandatory rotations
• Occasional “agricultural aroma”
• For you “city-slickers”…
Chilliwack is rural
