One of the AUC grads I worked with told me he gets 1-2 comments every couple of years about the university and in his 25+ years of practice he has never had a patient leave due to the name on the wall. He actually said it makes for great conversation when he elaborates on the trials and tribulations of medical school abroad (he was on montserrat) He told me that once you obtain residency the only problem you will run into is attempting to make a living off public speaking tours........ I hate public speaking
