so that " " thing is a name? a real one?
no wonder your not working.

Two years of Med School...you've got a long way to go. Hopefully on that journey you'll do some maturing also, as you'll need it on your chosen residency ( as well as in life ).

Do an internet search ( " Universidad Central del Este resident graduates " )...you shall find Interventional Cardio, Anesth, Pain Manag, Pedi-Gastro, to name a few.

By the way, the diploma scandal you graciously refer to was a Sto Dmng school ( CITEK ? ). UCE has been around since early 70's ( before it was " fashionable " for US students to study in caribbean ) and is recognized by most, if not all states- including the ones which bear most weight ( Calif, NY )- not sure about Texas.

Let me enlighten you: you are also a Caribbean student, hopefully you'll graduate and return to the US as a Caribbean Med School Graduate- they bunch us all together...by denigrating one school, you denigrate all Dom Rep schools- hence, yourself.

Im not the moderator of this forum but I will make sure they close this posts.

We may have a more peacefull conversation in another post.

My 2 cents

With the help of another thread, I found this ...

Schools Whose Graduates Do Not Have To Prove Substantial Equivalence Of Their Education

30800 DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
30801 UNIV AUTONOMA DE SANTO DOMINGO, SANTO DOMINGO
30802 UNIV NACIONAL PEDRO HENRIQUEZ URENA, SANTO DOMINGO, DOMINICAN REP
30803 UNIV CENTRAL DEL ESTE, SAN PEDRO DE MACORIS
30813 UNIV IBEROAMERICANA (UNIBE) ESC DE MED, SANTO DOMINGO, DOM REPUBLIC



Let's see: a paltry $3,500 per semester, Calif- NY-and Texas,
US practicing physicians since '70's...somebody tell me something to change my opinion that although UCE is not of the Big Four Caribbean Med Schools- it enables you to acheive your goal: become US MD !


Physician Applicants

Hey rules.......you're right. UCE is a fine school and is accepted in 50 states. The school our "antagonist" Taki is referring to was CETEC...I also beleive there were two other schools that were closed for selling degrees. The information can be found on CA board's website. To the point............someone mentioned State school's in Quito, Ecuador? I am assuming that is a Spanish program?

This individual Taki is my guess, im afraid to say attacking the whole world for his misfortunes....

My father handed me a copy of the most recent Cuban American Medical Association of Miami conference program and UCE grad doctors and surgeons accounted for over 1/3 of the presenters!!! Many of whom are now faculty or department chairs in some very good hospitals.

I’m from Miami and have worked as an ER Nurse for some time, I had the privilege of working with some of the best internist I know (graduates of UCE) Raul Portela, Rene Rodriguez, two excellent physicians. I know the UCE of today is not the UCE they attended 20 + years ago, but it doesn’t really matter. My personal opinion is that the student who is persistent in his studies will obtain the necessary knowledge to pass the USMLE and be a great physician. UCE requires that discipline. One could receive a degree from UCE and not know a thing about medicine but I know he would never reach the goal (US residency training). Good luck to all. I agree Taki needs to grow up.
