I have 3 doubts:
1. Am I applicable to the AEP?
2. Which could be the better pathway that I could take?
3. Do I have to take the USMLE exams?

[parhamnaderifar]

In another video you have also orthopedic surgery as Alternate Pathway compatible counted. But not here. Offers orthopedics also the Alternative Pathway?

[QuranUncut]

[rishabhjindal]

Hello, Dr Iyer. I want to thank you for your endeavor of reaching out to people at large to enlighten them with your knowledge.
I have a query regarding waiver job. I am an IMG, MD anesthesiology from Delhi, India. I am currently doing a year long transplant anesthesia fellowship from Miami. I have got acceptance for another year of neuroanesthesia fellowship at mcgovern medical school. As i understand, after two years of US clinical experience(two fellowships) i can apply for selection as an attending under AEP program in US. Currently, I am on J1 visa. Would i need to do a waiver job as a non board certified attending outside AEP to avert the two year home requirement and then apply to AEP. Is it easy to get waiver jobs like that without ABA certification? Or is it possible to get AEP in a waiver area to eventually be ABA certified? What are my options?
Thank you very much

[subrahmanyashetty]

Hello sir, what is the selection rate of abr for IMG specialists?

[draashiqnawal]

Sir.. You are doing a great help for IMGs who aspire to work in US

Myself Dr Aashiq Nawal who is presently working as General Surgeon in Muscat.

I have finished MS from India, passed MRCS and trying to purse colorectal fellowship from UK.

My doubts are :-
1. What is my ideal pathway to become a colorectal surgeon in US ?

2. What are the other alternatives i have ?

3. Should i repeat my General Surgery Residency in US ?

4. After getting CCT from UK, will it help me further to cut down years of training in US to practice as Colorectal Surgeon ?


Thank you in Advance sir

[registerpy]

Thanks for your informative video. I have a very specific question. I'm a radiation oncologist from India with 10 years of experience. I have finished USMLE Steps 1, 2, and 3. I'm currently doing a non-ACGME accredited fellowship in radiation oncology at a reputed university in the USA. I recently was interviewed at another university for the ABR alternate pathway where they are willing to offer me a one-year fellowship followed by a faculty position. The chair of the program has asked me a specific question as to whether I will be eligible to practice in an independent capacity as a faculty and whether the insurance companies accept my services under an independent capacity for compensation? Can you answer this question? Thanks in advance.

[teresabernardinepantino]

[decodingcap]
