A medical student or an MBBS graduate needs to do a medical fellowship to pursue a career in medicine in the US. Ideally, to become a physician in the US, the candidate first needs to complete an undergraduate degree, then a graduate degree, and finally, residency. An additional requirement is to pass USMLE, after which the candidate can apply for a fellowship in the USA. This medical fellowship program helps candidates specialize in a field of the medical specialty of their choice.
When a patient suffers from a generic illness, such as flu and cold, they visit a physician. However, when there’s a complex health problem, such as heart disease, they see a specialist. This specialist doctor spends time focusing on one specialty of medicine.
