Can Indian Neurosurgeons (with MBBS and have passed USMLE - 1,2,3 and Completed Residency in US) working in the United States get same salary of American Neurosurgeons (with MD and Completed Residency in the US)?

Animesh Vats Student Expert 24th Mar, 2020

Hi,

Well getting the same salary depends on how good of a surgeon you are. Doctors are one of the highest paid individuals in USA. If you are good as the person there then obviously hospitals would l give you the same six figure salary that they pay to their native doctors, sometimes even more but very rarely.

I hope my answer helps.

All the best.

I wish to become a Neurosurgeon, but first I wish to practice in the United States or Singapore for half of my career and to spend last half of my career in India. Whether my wish is a good one? Is it possible? Is my decision is correct? Kindly commend on my wish?

Raja, we have been discussing your career and aspirations for a while now and we appreciate that you want to take Career360's opinion on the matter of your career. So by now, you are aware of the fact what it takes to become a neurosurgeon and what it is to clear USMLE, practise as a resident in the US. We also have discussed the life style and the salary part. Now regarding the first half and later half of the career, we only wish we could predict our timeline on this planet. We do not which might be the first half or which might be the later part. But no wish is bad. If you want to achieve something, you should lest you regret for the rest of your lofe. Now to practise in the US, you may have to appear for USMLE, clear the step 1 and then practise as a resident before you can get the license to practise as a full time neurosurgeon. That is a long process that might take good 4-5 years. You study MBBS in India for 50 months and then complete the 1 year rotational internship and it takes you as many as 5 years. And appearing for USMLE and then working as a resident take another 4 years and so 10 years of your life are spent getting a valid license to practise in the US. And then lets say after 5 years you want to move to Singapore, that takes a whole different processing because you need to appear for their license exam. And you work in Singapore for lets say another 5 years and you come back to India. 15 years of your life are spent studying and getting licenses. But the beauty is within 15 years you can actually get license to practise in 3 countries. So you need to take a call. Or how about you finish MBBS in India, move to Singapore to study your MD/MS and plan on moving to the US? That way the transition is going to be smoother.

I wish to become a Neurosurgeon, I predict that I have a career period of 30 years. I wish to practice half career in the countries of the US, Singapore, the UK, Canada, New Zealand, or Australia and I wish to practice last half of my career in India. Is my wish possible? Is my wish a good one?

Manish Singh 2nd Apr, 2020

As long as you have an active medical license in your country that being india yes you can practice medicine anywhere in the world provided that you have some references who can recommend you to the place you want to work at and a good background check. That is the most important thing to consider. And yes your wish can come true if you work hard for it. All the best

Animesh Vats Student Expert 17th Feb, 2020

Hi,

Well I would like to tell you that after MBBS program ends a doctor can apply for USMLE exam . In USA once you are done with your studies, you are required to give USMLE exam which is organised in three levels and once you qualify all the three levels then you are allowed to get into residency program but finding one is really difficult. USMLE can not guarantee you residency rather it will only help you in allowing you to go search for residency in US hospitals. Same goes for international students as well but the level of difficulty is a lot and getting residency is the most difficult thing to do.

I hope my answer helps.

All the best.

Animesh Vats Student Expert 18th Feb, 2020

Hi,

Well I would like to tell you that after MBBS you can give USMLE exam in order to qualify for residency program in USA and for India you will have to give fmge qualifying exam and then you can practice medicine here. Either way the path is going to be difficult cause both the exams are difficult and USMLE happens in three levels.

I hope my answer helps.

All the best.

what is the process of usmle for pg course! l want all information regarding usmle please

S. Saha Student Expert 17th Feb, 2020

You can appear for USMLE or United States Medical Licensing Examination in order to do medical pg courses from USA. It's same as All India PG Entrance exam where you study up all your MBBS Subjects and write the exam. USMLE is a three step process where you have to score a very high percentage. Based on your marks you will be given a stream to get your MD in. USMLE 1 and 2 can be given in India after getting an appointment but for Step 3 you have to go USA and sit for interview. You can check the detailed eligibility criteria here-

can i do residency after usmle

Somrita Bhattacharya 25th Dec, 2019

Hello

After completing USMLE - 1,2 and 3 you are eligible for getting medical license. But to get a job at first you would have to finish an accredited residency training program. Then you would have to go for interviews and find an employer who would sponsor a work visa

Hope it helps
