Why IMG Recruitment?
We come at physician recruiting from a different starting point: lived experience with the international medical graduate pathway itself. We’ve spent years guiding physicians through pathways, licensing, and the move abroad — so we understand what it actually takes to get an international hire ready to practice.
Recruiters Who Know the Physician and Surgeon Pathway From the Inside
We Know the Pathway Hospitals Don’t Have Time to Learn. We Prevent Candidates from Fishing Around, Saving You Time and Money.
New State Laws, Licensing. Visa categories. Alternate pathways. Candidate Outreach and Selection. These are exactly the details that determine whether an international hire is ready to practice — and they’re where sourcing usually breaks down. We’ve built our entire practice around them, so the candidates you see are genuinely ready to start, not applications that stall.

How do we solve it?
From a Sourcing Gap to a Staffed Role
We maintain an established network of international medical graduates from more than 75 countries — physicians and surgeons actively seeking US and Canadian positions, with a track record of placement at leading institutions. We handle the complexity so you can focus on the hire.
Physician Sourcing
We reach the talent you can’t — a vetted network of 600+ international physicians (and growing) across specialties, actively pursuing US and Canadian opportunities.
Specialty Matching
We match physicians and surgeons to your specific specialty, setting, and location needs — not a stack of resumes to sort through.
Pathway Vetting
We assess each candidate’s training, licensure status, and pathway readiness before they ever reach your desk.
Candidate Preparation
Our physicians and surgeons arrive informed and prepared — interview-ready, expectation-aligned, and committed to the move.
Ongoing Support
We stay involved through onboarding and transition, supporting both your team and the physician or surgeon through the process.
What Physicians Say
What Board Certified Physicians say in their own words
I was mentoring an International Medical Graduate.
I reached out – OUTSTANDING resource! They really listen to questions and really have the best interests of their clients at heart. I learned more about the IMG process from them in one hour than I did from many hours combined. My highest recommendations.
Dr. Tom Nuckton, MD
Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, California
Wonderful information. I have been learning about much of this by bits and pieces in the course of IMGs in Anesthesiology. Have learned much more in a little while from your site. Thank you very much!
It’s such a detailed and thorough resource. Thanks for doing it.
I have referred many people to your website for information on how IMGs can be hired. What you have done is amazing.
