In Reply to: Question from recruiter - mtqueenB

you have worked in a hospital does not mean you have been exposed to every speciality. Smaller hospital versus a teaching hospital is very different when it comes to experience. Are you familiar with cardiovascular procedures, orthopedics, radiology, neurosurgery, or just run of the mill specialities, etc. This is a very legitimate question.
