I'm an M1 and I'd really like to do something abroad this summer, probably the entire summer if I can. I know a couple of organizations I've worked with before in Peru and Guatemala that have different medical volunteering opportunities as well as legitimate Medical Spanish Terminology classes (I can already speak fluent Spanish but medical terminology is like a different language even in English so I think it'd be cool).
A classmate of mine advised against this because they said I wouldn't be able to talk about it during residency interviews/use it on a resume due to it being "unethical", I think referring to the fact that I might do things abroad that I wouldn't exactly be licensed to do in the US. I've never heard that before.
Thoughts?
