Welcome,

Thank you for visiting the Michigan State Medical Society-International Medical Graduate (MSMS-IMG) Web page. Michigan State Medical Society has a long history of advocating for international medical graduates. In fact, MSMS was the first state society to create an IMG Section, and was instrumental in the creation of the American Medical Association’s IMG Section.

In addition to working on issues that affect IMGs, such as the J-1 visa problem, clinical skills exam and primary source verification, MSMS values its relationship with the many ethnic medical societies in Michigan. To review some of our recent collaborations with these groups, please scroll down and click on the appropriate section.

The MSMS IMG Section is your best avenue to share common concerns, debate issues and shape the future of medicine. Organized medicine needs you and you need organized medicine. If you are not already a member, I urge you to join today.

Shafi Ahmed, MD
Chair, MSMS-IMG Section
Member, Governing Council, AMA IMG Section
