Yeah, I was meaning the one without visa problem. You can study as much as you desire or whatever you want. But if I were him, i would continue in FM as fellowship in sport medicine or geriatrics

Thanks guys for responding. No ,I don't have visa issues.I have read that federal govt. only funds for first residency and hospitals therefore don't prefer people who already are board certified in other speciality.
