International Medical Graduate IMG

What is an IMG?


An International Medical Graduate or "IMG", earlier known as a Foreign Medical Graduate or "FMG", is a term used to describe a physician who has graduated from a medical school outside of the country in which he or she intends to practise. Generally, the medical school of graduation is one listed in the International Medical Education Directory (or IMED) as accredited by the Foundation for Advancement of International Medical Education and Research or the World Health Organization.

Sent us your feedback about this program. It is intended to improve the page.

I was also thinking to add something related to the California letter, because some programs require it before the interview, some after the interview, other after de match, etc.

this page does not pretend to be an official page, it was designed to show how the map works. This map can be added to any website.
