Abstract

Thousands of foreign medical graduates initially attracted by residency training opportunities in the United States have become permanent additions to the US medical manpower pool. While the numbers migrating from Western countries have remained constant, there continues to be an upsurge of physicians migrating from the Far East and Middle East. Once qualified for practice, they tend to settle in the more populous metropolitan states; proportionately, they hold more full-time staff positions in state and county hospitals. These foreign graduates seek specialty training and board certification in about the same proportion as their American counterparts. (<i>JAMA</i>229:428-430, 1974)
