generally these are very expensive ...somehow i never hear any feedback from any one who has tried it if u are a moslem doctor try to tap into the muslim doc network. Look up the CAIR rep in your area, or IMANA network and ask for doctor names...make a target to call 5-10 potential candidates ..if you are pakistani call APNA their physician organization Also look up all community clinics and call and ask for clinical attachment...prepare your 2 minute speech and tell anyone who will listen. it gives you good practice in being a bit thick skinned and for coming interview season, and its for free...dont fork over your money so soon good luck!! btw where are you looking?

do cristians have these kind of networks? :P saquib, what's up with the HIPAA act as being one of the tough prerequisities to get? I don't get it! I got mine by completing some trainings online. 30 minutes of work.. Certainly not a limiting thing to do electives!...

hello manunastai about christian physicians assocaitions these i have to be churhc based there are sites like this which are quite helpful according to my friends: http://www.cmdahome.org/?BISKIT=996004768&CONTEXT... also you can try the Physicians free clinics and other stand alone urgent care centers. Many ethnic doctor grups have their associations here and they tend to help those from their ethnic background, such as this listing: http://www.ama-assn.org/ama/pub/category/1531.htm... hope this helps

@ moslem doctor, it is kind of hard to get USCE if you talk to ppl from Egypt unless you have aa confirmed date of cominng here and maybe even some idea of where u will be stying. Then you can start looking in the general area. For instance if u spend some money they you can get gmcgroup etc to arrange somethng for you..i have no idea about these ppl but i know some ppl who do handson externship with them mainly in the atlanta area. they usually take ecfmg certified docs..but i am not sure..i dont know what yr options are so it is hard to narrow it down..

by ecfmg certified i mean that you have passed step 1,2ck and 2CS and ecfmg has verifeid yr credentials and then they send you an ecfmg cert to that effect. if these companies are genuine and get you hands on inpatient and outpatient work and these lors you get as a result from US doctors also say you did a good job then YES the programs will consider these. also note that anything is better than sitting home..even observation i a doctors office is better than nothing..but try for externship in a hospital setting as tha is best since it resembles what u will be doing in residency however these companies are not theonly way ..most ppl dont use them and use thier contacts here or go from doctor to doctor , try to present a good case to be taken on and usually do it for free or for the cost of health insurance hope this helps
