Abstract

International medical graduates (IMGs) are integral to the US healthcare system but are scarce in orthopaedic residency classes. Positive contributions of IMGs to the field of orthopaedic surgery in the United States are well documented, but successfully matching into an orthopaedic residency position as an IMG remains very challenging. The purpose of this study was to review current processes, strategies, and potential barriers of IMGs applying for orthopaedic surgery residency in the United States as an IMG.

期刊介绍： The Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons was established in the fall of 1993 by the Academy in response to its membership’s demand for a clinical review journal. Two issues were published the first year, followed by six issues yearly from 1994 through 2004. In September 2005, JAAOS began publishing monthly issues. Each issue includes richly illustrated peer-reviewed articles focused on clinical diagnosis and management. Special features in each issue provide commentary on developments in pharmacotherapeutics, materials and techniques, and computer applications.
