IMG Friendly Programs
Pediatrics
From data that we have researched and accumulated, we have formulated a list of programs by state that are IMG friendly. We hope for this to be a useful tool for IMGs to use and reference when preparing for and deciding on residency programs during Match season.
This data has been updated as of July 2020.
