hp18 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Share Posted March 1, 2009 How can I get details on formalities one needs to go through to practice in US after Canadian residency? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drduiib Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 Kaplan recently gave a talk regarding doing RESIDENCY in the States, so I think you can get some info from them. As a Canadian trained MD, you will need to do all the steps of USMLE to do residency or a fellowship in the States, so I would assume that you would need do them in order to practice as well. The USLME site itself should also have some good info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To wit, I am considering a fellowship in the US and I certainly don't wish to write any part of the USMLE. There are a number of radiology fellowships which are currently happy to accept my application despite my lack of USMLE scores.
