Hi all,
I'm a Canadian trained family physician (med school and 2-year FM residency, and without USMLE/COMPLEX/FLEX/etc). My background and licensure are not an issue *knocks on wood*
I'd ideally like to work January-April/May in a warm US state such as Arizona and return to Canada during the warmer months.
Does anyone have experience with this practice type? Any particular considerations beyond ensuring reciprocity? How did you find it? Any warnings or encouraging words? What should I seriously consider that may be overlooked?
N.B. The goal is lifestyle freedom and enjoyable weather with a long-term outlook; maximizing remuneration isn't the goal. I'm single without dependents or financial constraints that would impact this decision.
Thanks in advance!
