Canadian Medical Students Success Story - James MacGregor MD - General Surgery Match

James MacGregor M.D, from Woodstock, Ontario, CA matched into General Surgery and discusses his experience at UMHS. He also offers advice for prospective Medical students from Canada looking for a great offshore Caribbean Medical School. Dr MacGregor: "Not only do you have access to the US and Canada and an abundance of residency opportunities that I thought were made accessible to me by coming to UMHS. The networks that they have throughout the States and Canada, I did rotations in both countries, were immense and I wouldn't trade those experiences and the mentors I had for the world. Any student who's considering to come to UMHS, I would highly consider it due to the many residency opportunities that are available to you. I think our reputation speaks for ourselves. People have matched in all fields and all specialties."
