Michael Reese Hospital, Chicago, IL

Besides Ob Gyn what rotations can be legitimately done at Michael Reese. My university has an affiliation with them but I am not sure what Michael Reese offers??????

Michael Reese offers IM and Ob/Gyn core rotations.

From what I know,
They have an approved ACGME Int Med program
+
OB/GYN is through affiliation with U of I ?? This is what I was advised when I questioned the Greenbook status.

Michael Reese is green book in both OBGYN and IM. Many electives are available there for anyone interested. I did my OBGYN rotation there and I was very pleased with the experience I got. Assisted on more than 15 deliveries and even went solo on 2 with having Dr. G watch over me, assisted on 1 Forcept Extractions and been pimped and humiliated by Dr. B. Overall really encourage anyone considering FM or OBGYN to go there for the experience.

As for housing. Good luck. It took a week before I found a place close to the hospital with a family. Imagine my hotel stay bill for a week. I'm just a student.

Alright good luck to anyone going there and of course anywhere else.

I am going to be in Chicago for atleast till the end of december doing several rotations at Michael Reese and Jackson Park. If possible I also want to do electives at Michael Reese in Jan '08. I was looking on the internet at places in the Hyde Park area which is essentially in between the two hospitals, they are in the $650/mth range for studios. Any other suggestions of areas people have lived in doing chicago rotations?

Hi everyone! I'm starting my elective followed by my internal med rotation on Feb 11, 2008 at Micheal Reese. So I'll be there for 4 months. Anyone know of a place that is convenient to get to the hospital from and cheap?? Or anyone willing to share an apartment?
