“Thank you for the mazing work!”
“Dr Rajeev Iyer is the nicest IMG doctor I have ever known. And he does not have to be, considering his esteemed position as an accomplished anaesthesiologist at an Ivy League University Hospital. Despite having a long day at work, our meeting started as scheduled and he was very professional, detailed, and most important with his approach on how to craft a winning CV and a personal statement that speaks to the eligibility criteria of any application. Unlike other successful IMGs in North America, he gave me hope and rekindled my can-do spirit in a terrain where the barrier to entry is especially high for IMGs from low income countries. Indeed, Dr Rajeev Iyer is a tremendous blessing to the IMG community and I recommend him unreservedly.”

How to Get a Job in the USA Without a License? (2026 Guide for International Doctors)
If you are an internationally trained physician, you have probably been told there is only one way into U.S. medicine: pass every USMLE step, win the Match, and repeat a full residency — no matter how many years you already practiced as an attending abroad.
