Hello,

Sorry for the dealy in responding. I am currently not studying in UK, actually I am in the US for the past 2 years. As for my current enrollment in the Diploma from UK, it is online a (9 months) and I would do hospital rounds for 3 months only early next year.

Regarding my experience in US, as I mentioned I have been in the US for the past couple of years and have done externships, observerships and voluntereed at various hospitals and clinics in the US.

Below are couple of my recent experience details in the US:

Intern 
My work experience in XXX clinic under Dr. XXXX is very enlightening. Dr. XXX specializes in Family Medicine and Hospice and Palliative care. My job is to take history, do physical examination, write patient. notes, and advise appropriate counseling, diagnostic procedures and treatment, followed by a brief discussion with Dr. XXX. I thoroughly enjoy my work under Dr. XXX's supervision.
  
Volunteer Physician 
XXX clinic is a non-profit organization providing free healthcare to the uninsured in new york area. It functions on Saturday's and Wednesdays. I visit it on Saturday's. My assigned job is that of a volunteer resident doctor. My job includes taking history, doing physical examination on patients, advising appropriate counseling, diagnostic test and treatment. 


I will be applying to a number of programs but my goal is to get a position at The Mid-Hudson Family Practice Residency Program in New York. The reason being I have been in the area for the past couple of years and I have my extended family in the region.

As per the residency application institute guidelines "Your personal statement is limited to 28,000 characters (including white spaces)". I believe that is a lot and I would like to keep my personal statement to a maximum of 2 pages on MS word, as the residency programs receives hundreds of application and could not read personal statements in detail if they are too long.

Please do let me know if you need more info and please do feel free to add to the document if needed.

Thanks.
