Hey guys,

I'm just curious how a US medical school graduate would go about doing their residency in Australia, how difficult it is, etc. My boyfriend did his masters there and wants to re-locate their permanently eventually. Any info is appreciated 🙂

Also, if i did my residency in the US, is it fairly easy to get certified to practice in Australia (without repeating specialty training) ?

I'm a US citizen btw.
