Careers: Medical & Psychiatry - Lisence exam.


Expert: Janet Carter - 2/4/2009

Question
Dear sir,

I am a fresh graduate in medicine, born and raised in Pakistan, and currently doing Internship called as housejob in my country. Can you please let me know what is the license requirements to practice medicine in your area? Kindly provide me the comprehensive website telling me each and everything. I would also like to know if you personally know any country whose license is quite easy to qualify, kindly name it.

Best wishes.

Answer
I'm sorry, but I can't totally answer this question.  I practice optometry, which is a profession licensed SEPARATE from medicine in the United States.  I don't know if there is a separate license for that in Pakistan, so you might not understand this.  I also don't know your area of specialty.

I do not know licensing requirements for medicine in the US (again, only for my area of expertise, optometry).  I know that they vary from state to state.  I suggest you google "Licensing for foreign physicians in the United States" or something to that effect.  That is probably the best way to start.

I also would have no way of knowing requirements from country to country, sorry.  I wish you good luck.
