Nomadic_Medik Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 I am wondering if any CMGs have done an observership after obtaining an MD? I don't mean doing a med 5 year and doing extra electives etc through your school. I am referring to a situation where one has just graduated from med school, is not in residency for some reason or another (say, withdrawing from the match, leaving residency etc), and wants to secure observerships on their own during the "gap year" before applying to CaRMS. If anyone has done this, please post your experience here/any tips on how you went about securing these. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blah1234 Posted July 27, 2020 Report Share Posted July 27, 2020 I'm sure you could find some sort of community clinic observation. I'm not sure if schools would take you due to the lack of insurance that is normally provided by medical school or residency. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostLamb Posted July 28, 2020 Report Share Posted July 28, 2020 In Ontario I know some people who are not in residency for similar reasons above have worked as the telemedicine physician assistant for the family mds at the Appletree clinics.
