Yes, if a foreign doctor attended a medical school that is deemed equivalent to a US medical school, they can take the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE). However, passing the USMLE does not automatically waive the requirement for residency in the US. The residency requirements are determined by the individual state medical boards and the specific residency program requirements. So, even if they pass the USMLE, they may still need to complete a residency program in the US to practice medicine there.
