A doctor from Another Country can apply to work in the U.S. by first obtaining ECFMG certification, which verifies their medical education and qualifications. They must then pass the U.S. Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) and complete a residency program accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME). After securing a residency position, they can apply for a visa, typically the J-1 or H-1B visa, to work in the U.S. healthcare system. Finally, they will need to apply for state medical licensure to practice in their chosen state.
