mph, this explanation makes a lot of sense, and I don't think you will have a problem getting a residency. It's just ironical that someone with your profile would be concerned about the chances to get a residency (especially the way you described it). Visa is what makes things tough, eh! I have now a six-year gap in my clinical experience (and working only with my MPH) only because I tried to avoid the stupid J1 and caught myself in a process that is slow forward and impossible to go back. Good luck!

I am glad you guys liked my credentials. I look at yours with the same admiration and am glad many of you are applying IM. My severe draw-back is my graduation year. Many programs I looked at prefer recent graduate with an MD of less than 5-10 years. Good luck every one, leave pathology to me.
