                • The subspecialization was a personal choice which she proposed to her home site, and they accepted right away<\/li>\n
                • The choice of site arose organically, because it is one of the few sites, if not the only one, to offer a fellowship in that subspecialty, and the candidate had the advantage of having colleagues with contacts in Toronto<\/li>\n
                • Potentially, there were two other options, one in New York City (a nephrologist practising in Montreal had done that training a few years ago), but the procedures are more complex for leaving Canada, and the cost of living is higher, and one in France (in a site that conducts research, but had never hosted a fellow and had no fellowship program as such)<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/td><\/tr>

                • Since this is the most important conference, most nephrologists from Canada and the U.S. attend, and it is a good time to meet.

When paid by the site, you are an R6 and have to cover call duty and General Nephrology duties, and this cuts into the time allocated to the subspecialty<\/li>\n
                • She received a bursary\/financial assistance from her team at Sacré-Coeur Hospital.

                • In Toronto, you need to use an agency to rent an apartment. They can provide access to specialized sites, enabling you to select apartments to visit in line with your criteria<\/li>\n
                • It is best to plan one or two weekends on site to visit the selected apartments in person with the agent. Available apartments are usually listed at most 1-2 months in advance<\/li>\n
                • But there are many steps to be completed with the agent before you can make any visits (forms to be filled out, Equifax credit check, letters of reference, proof of employment, etc.). So it is best to contact the agent a few months in advance and complete all the necessary papers, then 1-2 months before the fellowship begins, confirm the apartment visits. Thus, once on site, you will be able to make an offer immediately if an apartment interests you<\/li>\n
                • There are many apartments available in Toronto, but also high demand and price wars at certain times of year. So you have to be ready, and have a good credit record<\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/td><\/tr>
