The search for residencies of Medicine graduates from the National University of the South (UNS) has a greater orientation than the national average towards first-class specialties such as pediatrics or clinical, said Pablo Badr, dean of the Department of Health Sciences of the UNS, on the La Brújula TV program.
“This year we compare what our graduates choose with the national level and in our case, they choose more to do residencies in the specialties of the first level of medical care: family medicine, general medicine, pediatrics, clinical gynecology,” he noted.
He added that in this way, at least in the city, this trend that occurs due to generational changes and the logic of the labor market is “dampened a little,” in which many choose subspecialties such as dermatology, plastic surgery, among others. .
“The trend that has been taking place, since the last 50 years, is that more and more subspecialties are beginning to be chosen. No clinical specialties are chosen. This has to do with a criterion of profitability, but not exclusively,” said Badr.
He also added that reforms are being made in the residence regulations, on issues such as schedules, for example; and that also “our graduates have the particularity that they are very competitive. Then they have the possibility of entering any residence that is prestigious today.”
Badr also mentioned that UNS Medical students graduate in an average of 6.5 years, the exact time their degree should last, and that they do not extend beyond that period as happens with other professions.
