I am posting my question for a good friend who is a graduate from Mexico City (I promised her I will find out a few things for her about plastics in the States). She is currently doing her social service requirements in Mexico, but would like to apply for residency in plastic surgery in the US. My questions are the following:
1. Which programs are IMG friendly and which definitely are not?
2. Would it be a good idea for her to try to set up a rotation at one of the programs in the States? Would that improve her chances?
3. How receptive is the field to women applicants?
4. Is there a website with a complete listing of all the plastics programs?
She is a fantastic doctor, and I would love to help her out. I'm a peds person and know nothing about this, so I'd greatly appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks a lot!
