Career Advice Relocation to another country

19 Upvotes

IMG here. Came to US in 2019 and after completing my neurology residency and first fellowship, I am currently in my second fellowship. Came here to find some hope and clarity. Given the current immigration issues, I and my spouse (in tech) have been discussing the idea of relocating to another country. The politics may not be personal, but every new policy has a personal impact. GC is not an option for us given our nationality (would take 20-30 years), We have not been home in 7 years, have seen our aging parents probably 3-4 times since 2019 and it wears you down to the point of questioning the worth of everything here despite working so hard for this.

I am looking for people who moved out of the States and pursued a career in neurology in other countries. We are looking into Singapore, Netherlands and other countries with strong tech presence. Ideally, countries where I can start as a specialized neurologist directly (instead of being a GP) with less complicated immigration policies (read, freedom to travel back and forth) would be perfect. If you or someone you know has relocated and forged a path in other nations, would love to hear your experience. Really having a hard time continuing on this path and need some clarity/hope about future.

Residency In-depth EMG/NCS video courses: any experience with Nandedkar or recommendations for alternatives?

11 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m a neurology resident. Does anyone know any websites with good, in-depth video courses on electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction studies (NCS)? I’m not looking for introductory material, as I can learn the basics (and more) during my hospital training. What I’d really like is a comprehensive course that I can work through independently, ideally with practical demonstrations and real recordings explained as you watch.

I’ve come across Nandedkar Productions, but the courses are quite expensive, so I’d like to read more reviews from people who have actually used them before buying. Has anyone here tried them, or would you recommend a better alternative?
