Question about after completion of MD/MS

Hi, everyone, I am a medical graduate from India and will be going through the USMLE exams soon.

One thing that I was curious about was what do people do after they complete their MD/MS in their selected field of choice.

So, once scenario that popped up in my head was, what would a doctor have to do, if he/she wanted to practice in a different country than where he graduated in.

Let me give you guys an example, I am a medical graduate from country A, and have completed my MD/MS from country B and want to work in either country A or C D E F G H.

I would love to know what people think about this and what options are available on this topic

Could you ask the actual question you want to know the answer to? Because the answer varies based on what A, B, C, D, E, F, G and H actually are.

Yeah dude, sorry, not sure what you're trying to ask? It's like you're asking if you graduate from India, do residency in the UK, then how do you work in the US.

By the way, MD in the US is your medical degree. It's not a postgraduate degree you do after your MBBS like in the UK, many Commonwealth nations like Australia and NZ, presumably India too.

Yea, that's exactly my question, like I have a graduate degree from India and I am planning on doing my post graduation from US, now what would the protocol be if I want to go to a different country (New Zealand/Australia, India, UK, Europe)

Aus/NZ have relatively well defined paths to practice for people with US residency training (do your own search on this).

British docs are fleeing the UK at a furious rate so I suspect by the time that you finish a residency in the US, they'll be begging for US trained docs to move there and practice.

The EU is hard if you're not a citizen. And you'll need to speak whatever language they do.

No idea about India.

I agree with what @gutonc said above. Heaps of UK physicians fleeing to places like Australia, New Zealand and Canada. If the UK stays in the EU (uncertain), then you'll also need a UK/EU passport.

I'm in Australia/New Zealand if you have specific questions. Otherwise DoctorConnect is a helpful general starting point.

Ok, thanks for that, I was curious and wanted to get a bit of the market scope before I jumped head into USMLE
