SAEM website About the Residency: All of the fellow residents are very eager to help each other out and give advice about ED management, off-service rotations, and the general Buffalo area. From the attendings, I almost always have gotten a good "mini-lecture" on my ED shifts. About Buffalo: As a native Californian, I appreciate the absence of traffic in Buffalo. The city and surrounding suburbs are full of things to do. Coming to Buffalo at the beginning of summer was great because of the warm weather and festivals - it was a nice way to start residency.
