Loma Linda

Chairman: Chris Jobe
PD: Montri Wongworawat
Location: Loma Linda, CA
Spots: 4

Reputation: Small community type of university program. Least known program in California.

Pros: Well rounded general ortho experience at the major regional medical center. Rotations are done at Loma Linda, Arrowhead, and the VA. It's still a California program with reasonable distance to LA, San Diego, Palm Springs.

Cons: Small faculty size compared to residents (ten full time). Lacks research and high powered academics. Some feel the location is not that desirable, although it is in California. You won't find coffee or Coke's around this place.

Final Word: Lesser known California program with Seventh Day Adventist twist.
