I know a doctor from Cuba, who use to work at McDonalds before taking his step exams. He became a doctor in Cuba at 26 and did come to the US at 30 from the winning the lottery system they have in the US for claiming asylum. He started working in construction and McDonalds for like 10 years before someone explained to him that is possible to become doctor in the US. He did not know any English coming to the United states and studied for a full year before talking the step exams. He was able to pass all of them and get into a family medicine residency around the age of 40.
He now is a doctor who just bought his family a brand new 500K house, he has a AMG GT 4 door coupe 2020 and bought himself a Rolex. Every time I ask him about residency and going to school in the Caribbean, he is like " its all b*llsh**" "do well on you step score and you can become a doctor it only depends on how bad you want and how much drive you have". But if you every doubt going to the Caribbean google some of the residencies and ask what is there view on foreign medical graduates. Because you can see the residency students and where they came from.
This is USF general surgery residency program. They accepted people from Lebanon, Philippines and Pakistan. (and people wanna tell you schools in the Caribbean are worse than, what about the foreign students from middle east or the students from southwest Asia)

I am applying to medical school in the united states right now firstly and will apply to schools in the Caribbean if I can not get in anywhere. But it is possible to become a doctor in the United States and be a foreign medical graduate.
