[quote=Anonymous]Have a child who also has an uncommon condition and her foreign medical graduate doctor is a pioneer in the procedure that has turned around her life. It is difficult for a foreign medical graduate to get into the most competitive residencies in the U.S., so for those specialties the U.S. often is in the position of skimming the cream of the crop of foreign doctors. It is in the less competitive (read less remunerative) specialties like family medicine and pediatrics that residency slots go begging for US med school graduates and get filled less selectively by foreign medical graduates. These are the areas of medicine that most people normally interact with so they are encountering the less competitive foreign med school graduates. They do not come under nearly the scrutiny given to foreign graduates who make it into the most prized residencies. [/quote]
