Residency for IMG was created by dr_healthy
Dear Dr. Levine,
I am an IMG from India, did my orthopaedic training and obtained MS orthopaedic degree in 2006. I have 2 years clinical experience in Australia after that and now I am doing upper limb clinical fellowship in new york. can you advise if I stand a chance to get into residency in US ? as I would like to practise in US.

Thank you.

clinical fellowship does not improve chances of residency matching as much as would do a research fellowship
though thats just me , but to corroborate .. here's Dr Levine's earlier post:
