Physicians Overview
By choosing a career in medicine, you have chosen to assume a role in the care and well-being of others. Throughout your career—for example as a medical student, physician-in-training, practicing clinician, researcher, or teacher—you will be called upon to demonstrate that you are qualified to meet this responsibility.
An essential component of demonstrating your qualifications is establishing the authenticity of your credentials, including your medical school diploma, medical school transcripts, postgraduate medical education credentials, and certificates of medical registration/licensure.
