IMG Roadmap Series #23: Dr. Kimberly Brown (Emergency Medicine).
“IMG’s cannot match into EM”. Have you ever heard this?
Well I am here to share my 2nd but not final episode of an Emergency Medicine doctor!
Dr. Brown is now a two time author and boss emergency physician who has been very vocal in encouraging IMG’s!
She is also my co-author in our most recent inspirational book titled STILL MD: Two Physicians’ Advice For International Medical Students and Graduates. In this book, we pour it out guys; lessons learned, tips and tricks and the reason behind our individual successes.
Grab your copy for only $16.99 on stillmd.com , but before you do, listen to Dr Brown on the podcast first!
If you enjoy this episode please DROP A COMMENT below. I really want to interact with you. I will love your opinion on what you want to hear on the podcast! I have some pretty “scarce” advice coming soon from OBGYN, Plastics, Peds EM, Surgery and so much more!
