IMG-friendly list of hospitals

List of "IMG-friendly hospitals" in the United States of America.

The authors do not guarantee complete accuracy as this is a moving target. The list serves the purpose of giving you an idea of the programs that have historically been IMGfriendly.

As outlined in the book "The International Medical Graduate's Best Hope", the authors do not advocate complete reliance on lists but rather encourage a one-on-one search of residency programs according to individual characteristics.
