so confused

Hello everyone,

I was wondering whether anyone knows if Canadian SGU grads can practise in the USA?

I am not sure whether studying Medicine in the caribbean is a good idea or not but can some one let me know of the disadvantages.

And does anyone know why I can't access the previous messages? Are you all having the same problem?

Thanks,

NS

Canadians

You can practice in the US, but you have to go through the same visa issues as averyone else. You will have to find a J-1 or preferrably an H-1 visa. Such residency spots are not difficult to find. After you are done residency there are a lot of ways to get around the J-1 "go back to where you came from for a few years" rule. You can get jobs in underserved areas, etc. Many pay OK, and have loan repayment. G
