VISAs are a major problem in dentistry. J1 is generally for medicine. In dentistry H1 is generally needed which means the hospital has to pay and make commitment.... which are costly and they don't want to do it. Also federal "GME" funding may not pay for international grads.

Some programs specialize in internation grads... mostly located at dental schools and charge tuition. I think Eastman-Rochester NY has a residency for international students.

Our hospital refuses to go through the paperwork and costs
