IMG Roadmap Series #22: Dr. Eryk Hakman (Emergency Medicine).
Listen! I did not know this resources existed until Dr. Hakman told me about it.
If you are a student rotating through US hospitals as a third or fourth year (medical student), this episode will give you key insights as to how to get publications and research opportunity. It will also teach you the importance of mentorship from a senior physician who has been where you are.
Dr. Hakman is an Emergency Medicine (EM) resident physician in the Michigan area. He is a graduate of American University of the Caribbean located on the beautiful island of Sint Marteen. Today he shares his journey into Emergency Medicine and what he did to stand out from the competition. Of special interest, he shares one way that IMG's can obtain some scholarly activity. He encourages IMG's to learn more about this at https://www.statpearls.com/. He also wants IMG's to put in twice the work required and to be bold to ask for favors.
