what does one do if they are kicked out of their residency program just when 1year was left for completion?
any options for family practitioner under these circumstances?
i have a friend who is currently in this predicament.
any suggestions would be appreciated :?:
This person needs to apply for a final year of FP residency. They probably could get a medical license but would not be a board certified physician.

from what my friend tells me there is no such thing as a PGY3 position in FP.(please inform me if i am wrong?)
the only positions available would be military it seems. that would mean a minimum of 8 years obligation! just when you had one year to go! isnt there anythingelse possible?

He would need to find a program that would let him finish his residency - no matter what year he is in. It's not going to be easy - most program directors will ask about why he didn't finish his training at that institution. And most PD's will want a letter from the program he was at.....
