In this video, I will provide detailed steps on how to become a certified anesthesiologist in the USA without a US residency. This is official. Through the American Board of Anesthesiology, it is possible to do this via the Alternate Pathway for Certification. I myself went through this pathway and I know of other people who have been successful in this. I will share my experience and secrets so you can learn how you can be successful.
Thank you for watching.

Due to the overwhelming response to International Medical Graduate (IMG) related videos, I am posting videos dedicated to IMGs on this channel IMG Secrets - If you are interested to know how to be successful as an IMG check this out www.youtube.com/@IMGSecrets
Thanks! This is very helpful
Thank you
Thank you sir for the valuable information
Thank you sir for such a detailed and helpful video.

This is an amazing video for the people who are planning to enter via AEP.
I am an Anesthesiologist, have done my MD and Fellowship in anesthesia and working for 8 years.
Afternoon seeing this video I contacted Dr Iyer. He helped me to have connections with program director for AEP, which turned out to be fruitful finding the position of Clinician educator. Thanks a lot to you Dr Iyer.
Thank you. I am glad things are working out
Check this ECFMG 2024 Update that will affect all IMGs and the way medical school recognition works th-cam.com/video/kLL5_Wm4cco/w-d-xo.html
VERY NICE VIDEO
Thank you
Keep up the good work sir
this is such a informative video. can you please make a similar video for american board of radiology
Thanks. Please check additional videos for IMGs here www.youtube.com/@IMGSecrets

Thank you so much for informative videos. 😀I am a Urologist. Do you know this alternate pass-way is available for urologists as well?
Yes there is. It is structured differently than Anesthesiology.

Thank You for the amazing video Dr Iyer.
I’m an Anaesthesiologist working in India with an experience of 3+ years and also hold a Green Card.
I have one doubt, for me to apply for the Research Program in the affiliated hospitals, do I need to be practicing in the USA? Or can I just apply directly to the program directors for this pathway?
You can apply directly from India. However, chance will be higher if you are already in the USA
Can you please also give an indication of likely salary during the 4 years of AEP pathway? I know fellowship salary would be 60-80k roughly which could be tricky to live on for a family in some states, if you work as faculty is the salary higher? Thank you Dr :-)
When assuming the role of a fellow, the compensation will correspond to the fellow salary. Conversely, when taking up the position of a faculty member, the base salary will align with that of other US trained faculties, which notably surpasses the fellow salary
Would Canadian experience count in the 4 years so 2 years Canadian fellowship and 2 years faculty?
Also can you make a video describing your path, like how many years you did in Canada and as what role and so on?
Canadian experience may count to get into the program but not in the 4 years of the program.
Hai sir… thank you for sharing this video.. sir i wanna know what is my chance in getting AEP pgrm.
I have completed my DNB post DNB 3 yr experience. Have 2 publications (RAPM journal) 2 posters ( ESRA) 2 presentations. What is my chance?
Thank you for the video. Can you please explain what is a faculty clinician in the USA? is a faculty clinician allowed to provide anaesthesia services or is it only a teaching role? I want to explore my options entering through clinician educator pathway but this requires us to be already working in the USA as a faculty clinician it says on the ABA webiste. Also while we work as a clinician educator would we be working as a resident or an attending especially those who have completed training from UK, Singapore, Australia?
I mean faculty as a generic term for a physician affiliated with a university. Before a person is a faculty they are typically a clinical anesthesiologist and faculty in this context is an additional bonus with a university title like assistant professor, associate professor etc. While working as a clinician educator pathway the alternate pathway candidate is not considered residency. This applies to candidates irrespective of the country of training
@@AnesthesiaGuru so staying out of United States how can we look for vacancies in a faculty post (is it same as applying for a clinical fellowship)? do we just need to write to program directors with our CV stating our interest to eventually enter the AEP program and ask for a faculty position? As you said in your video we do not require USMLE for research and faculty posts in the USA, what about those who want to work initially as faculty and then enter via clinician educator pathway do they require USMLE?
@@vishalpai3985 Any time clinical care has to be done, license is required and USMLE is required. As explained in the video, applications can be sent to Chairs with CV expressing interest in the alternate pathway program
Good Day...
I have done my anesthesia fellowship from Pakistan ( 4 years ). Can I directly apply or need to have ECMFG certification ?
You need to be ECFMG certified to do any clinical work
I have a separate youtube channel focused exclusively on IMGs and how to be successful as an IMG in Canada and the USA that you can greatly benefit from.
Check this out here at youtube.com/@IMGSecrets
In the 4-year plan, while waiting for a full license, can we be a researcher for 1 year combined with a faculty anesthesiologist for 3 years?
Thanks so much for your VDO :)
The 4-year plan can be 1 or 2 years of research and 2-3 years of faculty. Another option - if there is a need to continue clinical skills is to be an advanced fellow with clinical + research time for 1 or 2 years and faculty subsequently. Happy to share what i know :)
@@AnesthesiaGuru Thank you so much. This is very helpful!!

Are research fellowships and faculty positions through the non-USMLE route are paid?
Yes the research positions will be paid. You may be able get in with no USMLE but the expectation is that you will be doing clinical work and also have USMLE. All programs which have ACGME accredited fellowship or residency or both can offer alternate pathway but that does not mean every one will.
I have a channel exclusive for IMGs where i post content on how to be successful as an IMG in the USA and Canada. Check it out if interested at www.youtube.com/@IMGSecrets
@@AnesthesiaGuru Thank you Sir and yes followed!
Dear Dr..is there any age limitations for the alternate pathway !
No age limit

Hello sir, my sister is pursuing DNB anesthesia,will graduate next year,gave her steps 1 and back in 2017. What would you recommend to pursue her career in USA??
Your sister should focus on being ECFMG Certified. Then apply for matching to get into residency.
I have a channel exclusively for International Medical Graduates called IMG Secrets. You and your sister can check it out if interested youtube.com/@IMGSecrets
What exactly do you do in clinician educator pathway. Does it cost anything or do I get paid like am i working? I’m from Europe and I’m about to graduate and I’m planning to move to USA
You will get paid. If interested in coaching, you can reach out via appointments at www.IMGSecrets.com
Hi Dr! How competitive is the alternative pathway for a UK trained graduate?
The standards required by American Board of Anesthesiology is very high. It is mostly about finding a hospital that can sponsor the position. It is unlikely a candidate will be competing with other candidates but more so depends on how strong the candidate's background and CV is
@@AnesthesiaGuru Thanks alot Dr Lyer. so apparently with great C.V it's Achievable, do you think having a disastrous medical school transcript with multiple failures will make it impossible to get one of these seats because it happened to a friend of mine in Canada after agreeing on academic position they were impressed with him but after seeing his extremely bad grades they apologized and didn't appoint him.
Really sorry but your advice would be much appreciated thanks again!
@@doodmood326 I have not personally come across a similar situation. However, I think if the candidate makes up for the shortcomings with good qualifying exam scores and is excelling in whatever they are doing after medical school to grow their CV, the programs may look up this as positive growth..
This is so informative
Sir How much are we paid for research fellowship in AEP pathway??
The salary will depend on many factors and is decided by the individual hospital. Will also depend on candidates CV, what research, funded or non funded. It’s difficult to put a number but typically will be manageable
Sir is the same alternative pathway applicable for other specialist such as Neurosurgery and Cardiothoracic surgery??
To my knowledge similar pathway exists for orthopaedic surgery
@@AnesthesiaGuru Thank you so much sir:)) lots of love from India
Sir and please inform if it exists for any other speciality
@@spiritwanderer2220 Anesthesiology, Orthopedics & Radiology have the pathway. I say this based on meeting people who have been through the non residency pathway
@@AnesthesiaGuru Ok sir thank you so much.. please keep making more videos on these we really love watching your videos ,, it gives us inspiration..
Hello am anesthesiology with 7 years of experience ,currently working in Saudi Arabia ,i get my certificate as anesthesiology from cuba that is my home country .can i be eligible for The anesthesia board
The route to anesthesia board in the USA is anesthesia residency or alternate pathway for primary certification as explained in the video
Can you explain usmle clinical fellow ship method for board certification at 3:53 min
What exactly do you mean? How to become a fellow or be board certified after doing a fellowship as IMG?
@@AnesthesiaGuru how to become board certified after clinical fellowships as an IMG
@@hemanshuchaudhari4899 After clinical fellowship the pathway to board certification is 1. Residency and 2. Alternate pathway. But if the fellowship is part of the alternate pathway then the board can be taken after 4 years of alternate pathway
@@AnesthesiaGuru I heard matching in residency becomes extremely easy after 3-4 years of fellowship and residency years are reduced to just 1-2 years is right?
@@hemanshuchaudhari4899 @Hemanshu Chaudhari Not correct. The residency application may get competitive after multiple fellowships. The residency duration does not change
Hello sir new medical graduates from Uzbekistan can they also eligible
First step is to complete residency

Hi sir hope you are doing well,
This is prashanth reddy md anesthesiologist from Karnataka India,i cleared my step 1 during my internship (2018), later i pursued md anesthesiology from 2019 to 2022 (may), can I clear step 2 ck and step 3 and join as a fellow?? Is it a good idea??
Note: i just have one publication at European journal of molecular medicine and thesis yet to be published, i know sir not a great cv , how can I improve it?
Thanks in advance sir 😊
Dr. Reddy, i am good thank you. This is how i would approach your situation. Take a step back and think why you want to go to USA, for a fellowship or to settle in the USA.
Lets say you want to do a fellowship and go back. Then you can complete the USMLE step 2 get ECFMG and then apply for a fellowship. After this options are 1. return back to Karnataka or India 2. Do Residency
Lets say you want to do residency. Then you still have to do USMLE Step 2 get ECFMG certification. Apply for residency or do fellowship and then for residency. Honestly, the research and fellowship pathway in the alternate entry path program is very competitive and with one publications and may be a few more in the next few years may not pull you up significantly. This is based on my analysis of what you are saying not seeing your CV
@@AnesthesiaGuru thanks a lot sir,
I'm clarified with one thing that i don't need step 3 to apply for fellowship.
Currently preparing for step 2 sir hope i will see u soon sir if my time goes well 😊.
Good luck with your Step 2. In my experience UWorld and First Aid are very important resources
@@AnesthesiaGuru sure and I'll follow that sir!!
Hope I'll be helpful to others and make a difference like you 🙂
@@prashanthchittireddy4944 thank you 🙏
Thanks for an amazing video Dr Iyer.
I am an anaesthesiologist with about 15 years experience in India and United Kingdom. I have passed USMLE steps and ECFMG certified.
I would like to get your valuable opinion regarding the carrier path ideal for me. I have a green card.
Thanks. The two career options in the USA are 1. Residency and 2. Alternate pathway. As you saw in the videos i have highlighted the details of alternate pathway
Are you consultant in UK ?
Me too doing the same have you done USMLE step 3 as well?
@@AnesthesiaGuru Do we need to pass board exam after CE route as well?
@@paljay_ I'm truly grateful to the American Board of Anesthesiology for providing the option of taking the boards through the alternate path. It's a fantastic opportunity that I deeply appreciate.

Hello sir am an ophthalmologist, completed ny residency and fellowship in India,currently located in Washington with H4 visa with EAD ,so can I try this in my branch, because am not planning to take usmle we might relocate to India in next 4 years so am looking out for options without usmle
USMLE is mandatory for clinical work (sure there are exceptions for very experienced IMGs)! Without USMLE, the options is limited to research side. If the long term plan is not to be in the USA, then you could even start with voluntary work and then try to transition to a paid job. Other option is industry - worth a try!
