The Truth Behind International Medical Students And Millwork Clinic Houston

By Janet Bailey


An aspiring doctor who undergoes his / her studies at a University which is not based in either America or Canada is called an International Medical Student. In simple terms, it s a term which refers to a medical oriented qualification obtained in a foreign territory. This status is determined by the location of the tertiary institution as Millwork Clinic Houston, and not the nationality of the holder of that qualification. An African immigrant who attends the USA or Canada college and obtains a degree or diploma linked to Medicine is not categorized as an International Medical Student. In comparison, an American who goes overseas to London (United Kingdom) to join a London University for a four optician degree is considered an Internal Medical Student on completion of the above-mentioned degree.

A conversion can be initiated to try and bring a foreign acquired physician degree or diploma at par with one acquired on American soil. This conversion is guided by standard operating guidelines which are enforced without fear or favor above all which cannot be bypassed. It s both a clerical and statutory initiative as it involves submission of relevant documentation as well as abiding by laws which govern the conversion process.

The Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates ( E. C. F. M. G) is the regulatory body which undertakes the vetting of foreign acquired qualification. Its main thrust is on assessing the competitiveness of that particular degree to ensure that the physician is academically and professionally equipped to work in the America healthy sector. It has its own directory of foreign medical schools which are recognized by this body. The aim is also to try and weed out graduates from bogus or poor quality institutions. It uses its own methodologies to assess the relevance of a qualification. It has a dual role of both assessing and eventually certification.

For an international student to be acknowledged as a bona fide genuine medical practitioner, certain due processes must be accomplished. They are two criteria used in this process of determining and acknowledging the student concerned.

The written exams are under two categories. The categories are Clinical Knowledge and finally Clinical Skills. Attained medical qualifications are also verified. The process of verification is to determine the quality aspect of both the qualification as well as the reputation and reliability of the university where the qualification was attained.

To prevent aspiring medical practitioners from practicing in the Americas using qualifications from bogus and incompetent Universities, the ECFMG has a listing of all universities whose certifications as well as academic offerings are endorsed by this body. This listing is commonly known as World Directory of Medical Schools.

An international student overseas should ascertain whether the college he/she intends to enroll or is currently enrolled is enlisted in the World Directory of Medical Schools. For an overseas college to make it on this list depends on underlying requirements which are depended on a number of issues. The length of the medical programmes is one of the key issues. Other issues involve the academic and professional credentials of the tutors, the Continuous Professional Development (CPD) activities of the tutors and college as a whole, the infrastructure and lastly whether their institution has global recognition.

However, beginning in 2023 foreign schooled medical graduates who will wish to be acknowledged in America will have to make sure that the college they attended is accredited.
