An international medical graduate (IMG) is someone who studied medicine outside of their home country. They may have gone to another country to get an international medical degree or to do a residency program. IMGs must meet certain requirements to be licensed in the country they live in, such as passing exams and having a certain amount of experience in the medical field. IMGs often take extra measures to stay up-to-date with the latest medical research and best practices to make sure that they can provide the best care possible for their patients.
