Tentative 2012 Interview Dates:

Monday, January 9
Monday, January 16
Monday, January 23

Applications accepted via ERAS with a December 1, 2011 deadline.

Our interview format is uniquely different. Pre- and post-interview dinners are hosted by our residents. The actual interview day begins at 12:00N with lunch with the residents. Interviews with select faculty run from 1:00-5:00pm, while residents host tours and informal Q&A sessions. Because we believe that the interview process is important, residents are excused from clinical responsibilities as much as possible so that they're free to spend the entire afternoon with you.

 

We are committed to providing you with the variety, experience, academics, and support systems to help you take the next step in your education and career with confidence. For application information, please contact the Program Coordinator at 616.391.1909 or e-mail: PlasticSurgery@grmep.org.
