Your Have Options. Start Practicing Medicine.

Four clear categories. Each page explains eligibility, timelines, and next steps.

I’ve completed ≥ 1 year of ACGME (U.S.)

ECFMG + USMLE 1 & 2 (Step 3 often required). We target states for a full U.S. license and then align compliant Florida roles.

Eligible Route

I’m an FMG with residency & full license abroad + ≥ 4 yrs practice

Senior foreign-trained physicians may qualify for a full U.S. license (often out-of-state) and then Florida deployment.

Eligible Route

I’m an FMG (U.S. or foreign) with no residency and no license

Get placed in a clinic under a fully licensed doctor. Learn about supervised training/experience-building to improve future prospects.

Info & Next Steps

I’m a medical student or recent graduate (not yet ECFMG)

Understand USMLE sequence, ECFMG certification, and rotations. We outline how to stay on a licensure-eligible track.

Guidance

Note: A foreign-country license alone is not sufficient for Florida employment. Our model is full U.S. license first (often another state), then Florida roles that comply with current rules.
