Your chances are much higher than doing a residency before because you'll have 1-2 years of US clinical experience plus some American LORs.

All said assuming that you are an IMG who is about to finish his residency back his home country.


  #4

Yes this is just an option ,I want to know that doing fellowship first,and finding doing residency later .It is possible but I know Rarely done.
Does anybody you guys know did before?

  #5

I know that it is very possible.. first you'll do your fellowship and then U'll wanna stay in states so you'll go ahead and do the residency and get board-certified.


  #6

Its very much possible , I was offerd geriatric psych fellowship at a good university , Its a good idea if you plan to go back to your home country but if you plan to settle down in US , residency is must to practice in US.
