@ProjectImg @nytimes American males are being denied access to medical school in the name of diversity. Foreigners are given preference over America's own sons. They see it as a cost saving move but it will eventually result in third world care.

Sunday morning news!! Physicians can finally continue working in the United States. - As per @nytimes May 3, 2026 nytimes.com/2026/05/03/us/… After weeks of uncertainty, a policy update now indicates that international physicians may be allowed to remain and continue their training and practice. However, many affected physicians have not yet received formal notification, and uncertainty remains across hospitals and residency programs. This moment continues to highlight a critical reality: • International physicians are essential to the U.S. workforce • Many serve in primary care and underserved communities • Disruptions at this level directly impact patient care Across the country, this has created real concern: • Physicians uncertain about their ability to continue working • Incoming residents unsure if they can start on July 1 • Programs and health systems facing potential staffing gaps But advocacy works. Organizations—including Project IMG—along with physician leaders and national groups raised concerns, engaged stakeholders, and brought visibility to what was happening in real time. That effort helped bring this issue to the national level. According to recent reporting, foreign physicians are expected to be exempted from the visa processing freeze, though implementation is still unfolding. We remain hopeful that all affected physicians will be formally notified soon and that processing continues without disruption. Because this is not over yet. Recognition to Dr. @sebas_arruarana for national advocacy and for contributing to this conversation at a national level. This is what advocacy looks like. 🩵🤍 #ProjectIMG #IMGs #HealthcareAdvocacy #PhysicianLeadership #NYTimes

🚨 USCIS UPDATE | APRIL 30, 2026 -USCIS has begun lifting holds on select pending cases, including certain applications associated with medical physicians. 🟢 What’s happening: • Some previously paused cases are now moving forward • Includes applications associated with medical physicians • Select EADs and petitions are being processed again ⚠️ What hasn’t changed: • This is NOT a full lift of all holds • Many countries and application types remain affected • Enhanced screening and vetting are still in place • Additional background checks and re-interviews may occur • Processing times remain longer and unpredictable 🧠 What this means: • There is real movement in the system • Physicians are being recognized as a critical workforce • Decisions remain case-by-case and discretionary 📌 Bottom line: • Some doors are reopening — especially for cases tied to physicians • The system is still slower, stricter, and selective • This is progress — not a full return to normal Let’s continue working together, things seem to be moving on the right direction!! 🙌🙏

Representing @ProjectImg at @TheFSMB Conference - One of the most important national gatherings where physician licensure, credentialing, and workforce policy are shaped. Proud to present our work on how peer networks and global collaboration can help address physician shortages in the U.S. Our model is built on three pillars: 1. Education as Curriculum — structured pathway from medical school to residency (USMLE prep, clinical experience, mentorship, research) 2. Community & Global Network — 25,000+ volunteers across multiple cities, focused on outreach and underserved communities 3. Advocacy & Systems Engagement — collaboration with national organizations to improve licensure pathways and workforce integration What the data shows: • The U.S. is projected to face a shortage of ~86,000 physicians by 2036 • IMGs already represent ~25% of the physician workforce What we’re seeing is clear— Peer networks don’t just support IMGs. They accelerate readiness, strengthen identity, and expand access to care. This is no longer just about navigating the system. It’s about contributing to how the system evolves. From the outside… to inside the rooms where decisions are made. #FSMBAM26 #ProjectIMG

What are the top 10 organizations every IMG should know? 👇 We asked ChatGPT 1. Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates The gatekeeper. Without it, you can’t enter U.S. residency. 2. National Resident Matching Program Runs The Match. Decides where (or if) you train. 3. American Medical Association Your voice in medicine. Advocacy, leadership, policy. 4. Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education Sets the standards for all residency programs. 5. Federation of State Medical Boards Pathway to full medical licensure in the U.S. 6. American College of Physicians Massive IMG network. Mentorship + national leadership. 7. World Federation for Medical Education Determines global school recognition. 8. Intealth The system behind ECFMG. Expanding global mobility. 9. National Board of Medical Examiners Creates the exams that shape your path (USMLE). 10. Project IMG Community, mentorship, and opportunities worldwide.
