Does attending(observing) the Internal Med clinic of a pvt. doctor in USA counts as USCE? I have one friend doing IM private practice in california.Will few months observership with him count as USCE? thanks

Depends on the LOR that they receive and how the person that they observe with writes the letter. I matched with at least 15 people who had NO US CLINICAL EXPERIENCE!

I personaly feel that, this doesnt count towards USCE(what progs expect)... but something is better that nothing...good luck.
