[@babajideoladayo4541]

Thank you Dr Iyer for your continuous and positive engagement with the IMG community worldwide. I have been truly inspired by the journey of your august guest from India to the UK to Canada, and the expose that he provided for would be clinical fellows in Canada, not only in the field of Anaesthesia but across surgical and medical specialties. Thank you once again and I wish you greater successes going forward.

[@clarissabothpinto6658]

Thank you for the video!

[@agarwalnitish34]

Thank you Dr Iyer for the amazing work that youre doing for IMGs. While applying for clinical fellowships in Canada would it be appropriate to mention your purpose (in the letter of intent/covering letter) that you are eventually seeking the role of a permanent staff position in Canada? Or would that play against the candidate? Does being honest and frank upfront help? Thank you in advance.

[@IMGSecrets]

Honesty is imperative. We coach IMGs how to approach these situations strategically www.IMGSecrets.com

[@draluanamessias]

Thank for this wonderful video. I am an OBGYN from Brazil and looking in the hospitals websites in Canada, most of them require a funding confirmation for IMGs. I don't understand that quite well, because for me it is not possible to get a funding myself, I am looking for a paid fellowship. Could you explain it better for me? For exemple, the University of Toronto application form has a space for IMGs to "show the evidence of funding support". What shoul I write on this? Thank you very much

[@IMGSecrets]

When we guide IMGs through fellowships, we mentor them only for non funded fellowships which is what you can explore www.IMGSecrets.com

[@OJJAL7]

Thank you very much doctor for the amazing video. i have two questions one of the comments asked whether clinical fellowship is possible with a person holding MBBS and you answered no. is it because for clinical fellowship you need masters or PhD? secondly, as an img, would a specialty in radiation oncology or internal medicine/family medicine be more advantageous in getting a clinical fellowship position than a surgical one? thank you

[@IMGSecrets]

In general, surgical fellowships are lot more competitive than medical specialties. www.IMGSecrets.com

[@m.kcrafts3052]

Sir i am ms obg from india , do i have chances of getting fellowship in obg there?

[@IMGSecrets]

Potentially possible depending on how strong your application is www.IMGSecrets.com

[@nelliedivani9063]

Based on this chat, would you say it’s best not to apply for more complex or more popular fellowships from outside of Canada then? For example for a UK trained anaesthetist who wants a Regional fellowship, is it better to apply for a Clinical anaesthesia or other more general fellowship first, do that for one year and then apply for Regional or do you think it is possible to just directly apply for Regional? I guess same question could be asked about others like Thoracics or Transplant. Would applying for both Regional and a more general fellowship be unwise?

[@IMGSecrets]

Depends on what stage of anesthesia training in UK www.IMGSecrets.com

[@nelliedivani9063]

@@IMGSecrets it would be post CCT and FRCA

[@IMGSecrets]

The options can be lot more post CCT www.IMGSecrets.com@@nelliedivani9063
