I am planning to implement non-surgical estehtic applications in her clinic.
Can I do these applications in US after achieving all the steps and being certified by American Esthetic Association BUT WITHOUT DOING RESIDENCY.
Or another question is if I cannot do this, can I work as a general practitioner WITHOUT DOING RESIDENCY and how much averagely can I earn as a GP.
That is to say what can I do after achieving all the steps BUT WITHOUT DOING RESIDENCY. I am studying fort the exams but I cannot envision which way I will go…PLEASE HELP ME…TIA
THE ANSWER:
You can be a Licensed physician in the US without Residency. Read on
Without USMLE exam you can never be a licensed physician---> True.
But without Residency ? ----> that is FALES.
You can become a licensed physician in the united states and there are 2 other options (If you are already a specialist) without proper residency you can get the US medical license:
1. USMLE steps 1,2 & 3 + Fellowship in Cardiology.
And since you are already a cardiologist, this is possible
if you make/look for some connections in the field, just sign up for a conference or 2, mingle with your Cardio peers and life will be terrific, just try hard.
2 (this option is even better but a little harder, but doable)
Steps 1,2 & 3 + proof of your experience in cardiology in Turkey (the more years the better).
You can use these 2 things to apply for the Department of regulatory agencies at the state you like to practice in and they can grant you a waiver from residency based on your experience.
This is TRUE, LEGAL, and very subjective (it is how you convey yourself and convince the DORA (Department of Regulatory Agencies).
NB: Option 2 only works if you are already a specialist.
I understand that most people don't know, but these are just true facts, and because others don't know about them, it does not mean that these are not TRUE.
I hope this helps..
