Guys, this is bait. Americans generally match to more prestigious university-based residency programs. They’re at Johns Hopkins, Stanford, etc. Rochester General hospital is not hiring foreign MDs to take the place of Americans. They’re filling less prestigious, less sought after spots at a mid-tier program, and they still have spots go unfilled.
In short, there is a two-tier system. Americans get all the prestigious, sought-after, competitive spots at top university programs that result in higher pay and opportunity, and less desirable spots go to foreign MDs who will happily primarily serve in underserved areas. I wouldn’t necessarily call them “leftover” spots… but kinda.
And for the record, I’m MAGA AF and don’t like all the immigration stuff. But this thing with foreign doctors replacing U.S. doctors is false. These foreign doctors are filling a need.
This. They’re going to end up working in the middle of nowhere doing a job an American doctor won’t. The real threat to 99% of us and to the qualified med school applicants are the DEI admissions programs. If you’re not a woman or minority, best of luck.

Hmm… why not let Americans legally study and practice?
Do you really think Americans are somehow prevented from becoming doctors?
Or, more likely, becoming a doctor requires a lot of rigorous training and then being a doctor is a lot of work. Add on that a lot of "medical" work is paperwork and it becomes less glamourous.

It is too difficult to get into medical school. My son had solid MCAT scores and only got two medical school interviews.
Wait… you want to lower the barrier to entry for fricking medical school? Do you want dumber doctors or what?

You are a dumb arse, but at least your thread helped demonstrate how others are just as stupid as you.
No shite. OP is dumber than rocks and even when given a straight answer by people who have actually gone through the system he doubles down on the stupid. These people really aren’t taking American jobs and at worst they help bolster our woefully understaffed primary care system. I will take a foreign medical grad who completed an American residency over an American NP/PA 100 times out of 100.

I remember growing up through college always wondering why I seemed to get ignored by employers and admissions offices at universities. I had nearly perfect grades, very high standardized test scores, tons of extracurriculars, and aptitudes out the arse. Yet, I always seemed to only be given second or third tier status. I never could shake the feeling that something in the system was working against me, and that it seemed like I had to be overwhelmingly better than everyone around me just to get the same opportunities. However, I never could prove it.
One thing I love about the internet today is it has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt, that I actually have been actively discriminated against my entire life due to intrinsic physical traits over which I have no control. I never realized just how pervasive the discrimination really was. It’s a wonder that I ever accomplished as much as I did considering how much institutional racism, sexism, and immigration fraud was actively pushing me out of the job market.

The doctor who saved my life was named Kishore Yalamanchili and came to our country, legally, to study and stayed to practice. I am no moderate and he was the best pulmonologist in the field at the time.
This is not the flex you think it is.. This Dr you assume is/was the best is the result of a long running Indian business model. Ever wonder why most hotels are run and owned by Indians? It’s due in part to a practice of buying hotels, firing staff and moving family in to run the place, rinse and repeat. It is the same with gas stations. They buy, they fire and install family. The tech world is the same. They get hired, Americans get fired and then they are put in charge of the hiring. The health care industry is no different.
