International medical graduates face various challenges in transitioning to the US graduate medical education and healthcare system, including navigation, cultural adaptation, communication skills, racial discrimination, emotional distress, and financial issues.
International medical graduates (IMGs) have become a vital part of the US graduate medical education (GME) and health care system (HCS) workforce; they contribute to essential diversity that relieves cultural and linguistic barriers to health care. The number of IMGs looking for medical training in the United States. has constantly been increasing in the last decades. The challenges they meet begin long before residency application, continue during their transition to residency programs, through early medical training, and eventually subside in senior years. IMGs' hurdles permeate the themes of navigating the US GME and HCS, adaptation to the US culture, communication skills, racial discrimination, emotional distress, and finances. This article aims to comprehensively review available information concerning the challenges encountered by IMGs in their transition to the US GME and HCS environments.
