If you are in residency of the Cornell-Columbia program, which school do you get a residency graduating diploma from? Can you choose any one of them?

[@thomasbennett9017]

It’s one program that trains at both hospital so my diploma has both names on it.

When’s the better time to have a kid? Med school or residency?

[@MelSpeaksMD]

There is no good time.. you just have to prioritize. If having a child and expanding your family is important then just do it as long as you’re financially capable ...

My cousins husband is in med school. They have 2 kids. He has just been shipped off for a year to do residency. She is a teacher and works full time. I dont think there is a good time but more likely the most important factor is having a supportive partner and family.

[@LaitoChen]

As long as you have family support, mom, dad, aunt or granny to help with the child rearing between age 0-2 go for it. Otherwise it's unnecessarily difficult

[@thomasbennett9017]

The answers I see here are pretty good. There is never really a perfect time to have children whether medical school or residency. My program recently initiated a parent leave plan that makes it easier to take time off when needed. If you are thinking about having a child I would ask if they have such a program since there can be some underlying stigma to asking for time off when in training.
