Once the application season starts everyone here will get familiar with this word .It was method used in 18th century and is still used now....Its called RACIAL DISCRIMINATION.

Lets take a typical candidate for a residency interview. He is young,intelligent,has good scores on USMLE and is from No.1 medical college in India.He has aspirations to be one among the best doctors in US.

Here comes the application season ....he is all set apply....but hey...USA doesnt givea damn to his Indian Clinical Experience from the top notch healthcare set-up in India.Why??

Is Indian doctor any less than any american doctor?

Are indian doctors scoring 95 on USMLE not capable enough to match an american scoring 85?

The truth be told.USA has a way to say 'no' to an IMG....and the best EXCUSE is "we are looking for candidates that have US clinical Experience"

Our young intelligent doctor from India tries to find something useful to be called as US clinical experience ....first he ends up getting cheated by some fake website offering "hands on clinical experience"

then he ends up doing some unpaid research for some greedy american doctor who didnt even have a heart to pay the poor guy for his effort....Why did our indian doc do that?? Ofcource to get that "hands on experience" the fat coordinator told him to get.

He is happy that he will get some good LOR now....but no....he gets shocked on reading his LOR.It has nothing specific about him except for mentioning "Dr.XYZ was a part of our research team from April 2008 to April 2009".The poor guy spends some time reading between lines to find something like "skill" , "hands on experience". but he doesnt find anything useful on his LOR.Left in tears and nothing to do other thank say 'thanks' to that White doctor.

Is it not RACIAL DISCRIMINATION by USA to disregard your Degree and experience .What makes them think we are QUACKS from our counrty unless a WHITE DOCTOR certifies in his LOR that Dr.XYZ from India has some clinical skill??

RETHINK WHAT UR ABOUT TO DO IN THE NAME OF USCE!
