Getting US Clinical Experience-More details

I felt that getting in the system is very difficult for IMGs as finding observership or externship might not be very easy. Most of the hospitals have their own Liability Issues.

But remember volunteers are always welcome. Contact the Professors who are conducting research and ask if you can volunteer. Contact the volunteer office of the hospital and they will do your immunization checks and orient you-takes about a month or so. Shadow the Professor in clinic/research/inpatient and get LOR after 3 months.

Also getting Research Assistant job is an excellent thing on the resume, lucky people might get H1 visa sponsored, and people with no visa issues have an advantage in finding such opportunities. The key is to keep trying.

USCE is very important, I can suggest a few places for Observership/Mini Internship-
East Coast-Columbia, Yale NH, U Conn, MSSM-NY, UMDNJ Camden, Miami-MSSM, Michigan-Harbor hospital(not sure of this one), some are free- some charge for iunsurance.
All the best and thanks for blogging.
