>> This is Dr. Hansen. He's one of our second-year residents. Dr. Hansen, what attracted you
to Penn State's Hershey Dermatology residency program?
>> Well, mainly the faculty struck me as very invested in resident education, and the practice
here simulates real dermatologic training where we have our own clinics all three for
years with adequate supervision but a good amount of autonomy in which we can make decisions
that we will be making as future dermatologists.
>> What advice can you give future applicants?
>> Well, mainly that the culture of a program is really what determines its success at training
future applicants as well as fostering an environment of learning, so getting a sense
for not only what the details of the training involve but also the environment that you're
working in, including the characteristics of the faculty members and staff in the clinic
you'll be working in is key in understanding how well the program's going to benefit you.
>> When they say Hershey is the sweetest place on earth, what do you like about Hershey,
PA?
>> It's convenient as far as traveling from one place to another and easy to get around.
It's a tourist destination so they have concert venue as well as Hershey Park, and it's a
great place to live.
