International Medical Doctor Mentorship

WHF's International Medical Doctor Mentorship Program provides mentorship to medical doctors living abroad seeking to continue their careers in the USA. With this mentorship program, WHF aims to help well qualified physicians find their way to practice in the US medical system, integrate, and contribute.

This mentoring program is open to medical doctors, whether academicians or working at private practice, who have graduated from a foreign medical school, obtained further medical education, and currently are residing and practicing outside the United States.

With the help of dedicated volunteers, WHF is committed to helping interested international medical doctors to familiarize themselves with the US medical system and make an individual career plan to integrate to the US medical system. Typical paths include residency, fellowship to academia-private practice, or alternative paths leading to other relevant practices within American medical fields.

This program also provides information and guides the applicants about the United State Medical Licensing Examinations (USMLE) and other licensing procedures and guides for eligible candidates, such as faculties and professors, and academic green card applications.

IMD Mentoring Program aims to help candidates improve their necessary skills, prepare required documents, formalities, and other needs while in their country and guide them to find an appropriate initial temporary position in the USA.
