Parking and Transportation

Parking is very expensive at all the hospitals. If you want to park on site, go to public parking and expect to pay $10/day. Car-pooling to clinical is a good way to save money on parking. So chat with the members of your clinical group on the first day to see if carpooling is an option for any of you.

All the hospitals are accessible by public transit routes.
