foreign doctors in canada

• Check the websites for the AIPSO (Association of International Physicians and Surgeons in Ontario), www.mcc.ca (medical council of Canada), and check for requirements in each province. Most provinces in Canada require one to take Evaluating Exam, QE I exam and possibly TOEFL and TSE to apply for CARMS (residency program). Although there are more residency spots in USA , it is hard to get into US residency program if one is old (age) or it has been long since your graduation from medical school. However, in Canada, there is not much importance given to age. So for older foreign doctors, better chances in Canada. For younger foreign doctors, better chances in USA. In USA, one has to complete STEP 1, STEP 2 Ck, STEP 2 CS in order to apply through ERAS for residency in USA.
