Interviewing Canadian Do Physicians


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone,

Since being an OMS over the years I was actually shocking to see how many Canadian DO doctors were out there, lurking in the shadows at several US sites, and because of this I wanted to interview these physicians. I will be posting these interviews on the COMSA website (www.studentdo.ca)- if you have any specific question you want me to ask them – message me and I will include them (as long as they are appropriate). I think this is going to be a great way to show all the hard work that many students/residents/and doctors have put forth, and to create a stronger community for us.

If you are one of those Canadian DO physicians, please reach out to us :)

Cheers,

COMSA-Premed

Why DO over other IMG schools?

 

DO medical education= higher match outcomes, OPT sponsorship for Canadians, lower cost of tuition, scholarships, education in the US, clinical experience and connections in the US, elective rotations at any US medical school/hospital, ability to apply to restricted states (like Cali), a stronger medical education focused on primary care, and beginning 2020, all AOA and ACMGE residencies will merge.

Our next interview will be from a Canadian DO who matched into an AOA FM residency in the AOA match.

 

If you have any questions that you want specifically answered please PM me. 

 

For those not aware USDOs have the added benefit of matching into AOA OR dual (AOA/ACGME) programs a month prior to the ACGME match.

 

If the AOA match does not work out they can then enter the ACGME match pool

 

The gives USDOs the potential to enter 2 matchs (ontop of SOAP and SCRAMBLE), further increasing a successful match.
