once our credentials are verified by ECFMG .. any work experience letter that we submit in our residency application is also verified????

Like i got my work experience letter last year from my home country and also one is from another doctor in an hospital back in 2006 ...

what if that doctor is not available for verification or something?

I tried getting LOR from one of the doctors i worked with and he no longer works there.. couldnt get in touch with him ....

I wouldn't have a clue what happens at ECFMG (or ERAS). I don't work for them, and that information isn't passed along to the program.

Have you googled the doctor that you are looking for?

Yes i tried finding him but he doesnt work for that hospital anymore so i couldnt find him...

also, i understand that LORs are verified so those doctors can be contacted since LORs are recent..

but do progams want to get verificaton for the work experience from the doctors we have worked with?

In 20 years, I have never verified an applicants work experience, except when I know the letter writer from past residency and want to catch up with them. Then it's social, not verifying.
