A special hat tip to Gruntdoc—my fellow emergency physician and alumnus of the greatest emergency medicine residency program—UCSF/Fresno. (classes of 1990 and 2001, to delve into clichè—I’m the old bull and he’s the young buck…)

Congratulations! You certainly deserve it.
I'm curious why you think UCSF-Fresno is the best EM program out there. Apart from the obvious fact that its alumni write such good blogs, of course…
1. At the time of my training it was just a county hospital—large volume of everything, esp. trauma; now it is an official University hospital—additive.
2. The EM residents get to do everything in the ED, e.g., run all the resuscitations.
3. Even to this day (almost 15 years out from residency), they have had consistently the best residency trained faculty—still very much my image and role model for EPs.
4. Of course having trained there (first class that went from the 3 to 4 year format), I have no biased opinion…
