Description
I am an internationally trained General Practitioner and Emergency Physician from Nepal with over five years of independent clinical experience as a Consultant Physician. I completed my MBBS at B.P. Koirala Institute of Health Sciences and have extensive hands-on experience in acute care, emergency medicine, inpatient management, and primary care. I am ECFMG-certified and have successfully passed all USMLE Steps, demonstrating competence in U.S. medical standards.
I am now seeking opportunities to serve in medically underserved or rural communities in the United States under state-approved pathways for foreign-trained physicians. I bring strong diagnostic skills, broad clinical exposure, adaptability, and a commitment to high-quality, compassionate care. I am motivated to contribute meaningfully to patient care while integrating into a U.S. healthcare team through supervised or provisional licensure requirements as needed.
