Visa and Immigration Support for IMGs
J1 waiver, H1B, and the path to attending for international medical graduates — navigated by people who understand the physician-specific timeline, not general immigration law.
What's included
International medical graduates carry a timeline problem on top of everything every other physician deals with: visa status has to line up with match, licensing, and job search, and getting the order wrong can cost a year or more. J1 waiver pathways alone have several routes — Conrad 30, FLEX, and others — and which one makes sense depends on your specialty, your target state, and your specific visa history.
DocNation’s visa support is built around the physician-specific version of this problem: J1 and H1B strategy, waiver sponsor guidance by state and specialty, and coordination with the match and job search timeline so visa status isn’t the thing that derails an otherwise-solid plan.
This is coordinated alongside immigration counsel where formal legal representation is needed — DocNation manages the physician-specific strategy and timeline, not the legal filings themselves.
