About Resident Insider

Resident Insider was built by two practicing US attendings. We’ve each been on every side of the match: student, applicant, resident, now attending.

We built this because we wished it existed when we were applying. The honest take on programs only happens behind closed doors, and that information shouldn’t be reserved for whoever happens to know the right person.

We stay anonymous for the same reason our residents do: anonymity is what makes the truth possible. Professional retaliation for honest advice is a real risk in medicine, and the trust model that protects our residents also protects us.
