IMMIGRATION POLICY FOR US RESIDENTS – PRIORITY WHEN CONSIDERING H-1B VISA SERIES In recent years, visa sponsorship policy has become an important tool to attract international doctors (International Medical Graduates – IMGs) to participate in residency programs in the US. This policy not only creates conditions for foreign doctors to work but also opens up opportunities to permanently settle in the US. As mentioned in previous articles, the two most popular types of sponsored visas are J-1 and H-1B, of which the H-1B visa offers many attractive benefits, especially the ability to shorten the time to get a green card and flexibility in choosing a job after graduation. However, each year, USCIS (US Citizenship and Immigration Services) only grants a maximum of 65,000 H-1B visas (an additional 20,000 visas for people with a master’s degree or higher from the US). If the number of applications exceeds the

3 NOTES WHEN CHOOSING A RESIDENTIAL SPECIALTY IN THE US

3 NOTES WHEN CHOOSING A RESIDENTIAL SPECIALTY IN THE US Choosing a medical specialty to pursue can be said to be one of the most important decisions in a doctor’s life. This not only affects your lifelong career but also determines your level of job satisfaction after work. A correct choice will save you many years of effort. There are 24 hours in a day, most of your time is work and if it is not work that brings you joy and satisfaction then you certainly will not be able to do that job for a long time. So how to choose a specialty that is right for you? 1. Consider personal passions and interests In this regard, AMGs like me will have many advantages over IMGs because they are trained, go to rotations and understand the specifics of specialties in the US. Although the same

CAN US RESIDENT DOCTORS GUARANTEE FAMILY?

Ho Tro 16/05/2025 No Comments

CAN US RESIDENT DOCTORS GUARANTEE FAMILY? This is a question that almost every IMGs pursuing the USMLE and American Medical residency path is interested in. That’s why today I will have an article explaining in detail about sponsoring your family to come to the US after you have become a resident doctor, along with necessary information about the process and related benefits of the sponsored person. To answer briefly, after being matched to a medical residency training program, you can absolutely apply to bring your family to the US. However, the specific sponsorship process will be slightly different depending on the type of visa you are sponsored by the boarding program (mostly J-1 visa or H-1B visa). 1. Sponsor your family with a J-1 visa If you are sponsored for a J-1 Visa, you can sponsor your family to come to the US as a J-2 visa

SHOULD I TAKE STEP 2 CK BEFORE STEP 1?

Ho Tro 15/05/2025 No Comments

SHOULD I TAKE STEP 2 CK BEFORE STEP 1? As someone who has discussed with many IMG (International Medical Graduates) about the USMLE journey, I often receive the question: “Should I take Step 2 CK before Step 1?” Recently, a friend texted me asking this, and when I asked why, he shared that Step 2 CK feels “closer” because it involves a lot of practical clinical knowledge, and learning Step 2 CK is “better and easier to do” than Step 1. I understand that feeling – who doesn’t like to learn practical, immediately applicable things, instead of having to re-learn the dry basic science of Step 1? But after thinking and based on experience, I still advise her – and other IMG students – to take Step 1 first. Choosing to take Step 2 CK before Step 1 may be attractive because of the initial “easy” feeling, but hidden behind

7 THINGS I LEARNED WHEN GOING TO THE GYM

Ho Tro 13/05/2025 No Comments

7 THINGS I LEARN WHEN GOING TO THE GYM I have always been a genuine bookworm. I can sit for hours, even days to write, study, read books, or research or learn about a problem without getting bored. But on the contrary, when it comes to exercise or physical activities, that’s something I have absolutely no interest in. When I was in school in the US, schools often had a physical education subject called Physical Education (PE), and to be honest, those were the subjects I hated. If anything, I have to study, but I really don’t like it at all. But recently, I decided to set a challenge for myself: go to the gym, at least 3-4 times a week. Just a few months have passed. Today, I want to share with you 7 things that I have learned from this gym journey – a journey

IN THE US, IF YOU GO TO THE EMERGENCY AND HAVE NOT PAID UP, WHAT WILL Happen?

WHAT HAPPENS IF I GO TO THE EMERGENCY AND HAVE NOT PAID UP? 1. In case the child “pays enough money for emergency treatment” In recent days, social networks have spread rapidly the clip “pay enough money to provide emergency care” for a 4-year-old baby at Nam Dinh Provincial General Hospital. Even though the specifics of the incident are unclear, this video cannot help but make people angry when they watch it. Human life is important above all, so why do we have to ask for an “advance” to save it? Don’t know what the truth is. However, I have heard people in the profession in Vietnam share that while doctors always want to save patients, sometimes they encounter difficult situations such as after being treated after a critical illness, but the patient escapes the hospital. As a result, the doctor and medical staff who saved that patient’s
