I'm a Canadian IMG thinking of applying to the US for ObGyn residency training.
Does anyone know how difficult it is to return to Canada after this? I know the US programs are only 4 years, but the RCPSC doesn't outright reject this training (http://rcpsc.medical.org/information/index.php?specialty=336&submit=Select - "specialty training requirements"). That being said, I'm just not sure if, in reality, it's nearly impossible, or if generally no one has a problem. Anyone have any idea, or any personal experience?
