Send me your name, address, and social security number and someone will get right back to you on that.\n\nEdit:  Medical student?  Oh well then, never mind - you should be able to do anything you want; after all, you are almost a god!  But wait... code of ethics?  Nah, don't sweat it!  Just finish school and there will be lots of cash, gifts and trips from pharmaceutical companies that want you to peddle their products, you can prescribe unnecessary surgery and get kickbacks from surgeon buddies, and of course, you can always sell your scripts!

if you have a school of dentistry near your home, try going to them and see if they will allow a senior student to "practice" on you as a volunteer. That is what I do here in the US and so far I have not had much problems. they appear to know what they are doing.

it depends on a lot. are you working in a hospital or a private practice? what part of the country do you live in? how much experience do you have? what kind of education (beyond your certification) do you have?

Speaking for the USMLE (that's the one I've taken all 3 steps in), there are tonnes of prep books and study programs available.  Once you take Steps 1 and 2, and get a decent score, there are many residency spots available for qualified foreign medical graduates (FMGs).\n\nOnce you finish residency as an FMG, depending on which visa got you here, the way to stay in the U.S. medical system working, is to go to an underserved area (inner city, rural community, VA hospital) and work there.  In the meantime, you can work on green card paperwork and permanent residency, which will allow you to work anywhere.\n\nIn terms of the environment of U.S. medicine, there is a great fear of litigation (lawsuits) which makes medicine a little bit overexhaustive and has emphasis on overdocumentation and paperwork.  There are few restrictions to the lenght of time and the intensity of care patients get.  \n\nCanada and the UK have more socialized medicine systems, where there are restrictions to the type of care people get (less ICU care, less dialysis), and wagewise, physicians make relatively less than US physicians, since many are salaried.

I have had a devastating illness in the family. I am a Citizen. I did NOT receive help for my son. Just a kiss off. The programs are bloated with people who should NOT even qualify but by false documentation or the rules of that state of not being ALLOWED to ask if they are legal citizens take away from the LEGAL CITIZENS who have paid into the system for years. I know I am blessed my son is still alive there are sooooo many others who have lost their child through inadequate medical care due to money constraints.

Omigosh...I am from Jamaica and I am shocked to even think you thought we are that backwards. Listen......Listen.....LISTEN, we are as advanced as the USA. Most of our doctors are trained In England and they bring the latest practices to Jamaica and I dare say to the entire Caribbean. We do not vist bush doctors nor tend to our sick, if we are not trained to!. We have well equipped hospitals that do that for a fee, in some cases it's free. We consider illness an un-fortunate experience but confident that the right medications can take care of anything. So yes, we still go to work even though we may have cancer or even the flu! All employers supply their employees with a health card so that also encourages a visit to the doctor. Omigosh, we have a modern thriving health sector with qualified practioners of all categories, so we do not have to rely on alternate medicines...okay boss??? Welcome to the future!!

First of all understand that MT and clerical and receptionist are three really, really different jobs.\nUnderstand the job description when you apply.\nYou may be asked to train in medical billing because you know the terminology.  (Don't just assume that SOB is shortness of breath, know your doctors specialty.)\nI know that you probably know this but I am going to tell you anyhow.\nShow up on time. That will help you keep a job faster than any other skill you have.\nDon't be afraid to ask questions. Depending on the office you will get lots of help or just told to figure it out. You have to be alot more capable if you have to figure it out on your own. Don't give up, just keep asking questions until you get an answer that leads you to the needed information.\nBe flexible, offer to do be available to do any job necessary.\nBe polite to the patients and the rest of the staff. Learn who is your immediate boss and the chain of command. If you work in a two or three person office you may only be responsible to the doctor. That can be harder to work with.\nIn a small office you might be asked to do some Internet work, so be familiar with how to get around medical sites.\nDress very professionally, nothing cutesy or trendy. \nFor your interview wear closed shoes. No toes or heals showing.\nThis might not have been what you were looking for, but it is all good advise.\nI worked for four different doctors. Each one had their own quirks but you can work with anything once you get use to it.\nFeel free to e-mail me if you want to talk more about it.

In the US it is the same but with insurance companies.  They will pay if you go to a doctor who took 100 hours of acupuncture classes  but not if you go to someone who has a degree from an acupuncture school(one in Massachusetts takes 6 years to get).   Multiculturalism is all crap anyways.  Come to my city and see how "great" it supposedly is

Nurses are one of the most indemand professions in the United States. \n\nYou can either come to the US via an agent or recruiter, or you can try your luck coming here and taking all of the licensure exams needed before your tourist visa expires.

Hi. I had a boyfriend while in college about six years ago and came to the US with a medical license from Europe. In order to even begin working in the US he had to pass the USMLE(United States Medical Licensing Exam). When he was taking it there was only an 11% passage rate. It is a very difficult test. It is $500 dollars each time you register to take the test. I sat with him many, many hours as he studied. I would first find out what it takes now to get a an MD license in the US and go from there. Hope this helps!

from what i've heard -- if you are interested in medicine, and tell recruiters that when you enlist, you will stay in that field within the military.  i met someone who was a mechanical engineer (or perhaps studying it, more likely), and tho he was in the services, he worked on engines, etc. as opposed to fighting.\n\nit's my impression that if you join and tell them you are interested in/have experience in a field that is used by the military, but is non-combative, that you can pursue that track within the military.\n\nyou could try telling a recruiter that you're interested in serving the country, but serving it through medicine/taking care of injured fellow servicemen.......\n\nbut keep asking, this is all just what i've heard second and third hand.  good luck!  and if you join, may you stay safe!!

What is SPM.  Is that like HS? You look into the Service to pay for your medical school.  I've known of a few doctors who only had to join the Military for 6 yrs after medical school in exchange for all there bills paid.  Not a bad deal.  My nephew did it and loved it.
