Hi,
I am new to military medicine so forgive my ignorance. From what I understand, even if you are US IMG that is ECFMG certifed, you cannot just enlist in the military and expect to get a residency. But how about internships? are they competitive to get? Could an US IMG enlist in military, do a 1 year internship, and do a GMO to make him more competitive for military residency while also applying for civilian PGY-2 residency? Thank you
