The NRMP has reported that more than 7,000(!) IMGs obtain first-year residency positions in U.S. programs of graduate medical education. Per ECFMG, this is the highest IMG match rate in 30 years. IMGs comprise approximately 25% of all active U.S. physicians. Of the IMGs that matched, 3,154 are U.S. citizens and 4,222 are citizens of other nations.

The NRMP’s rules regarding participation in the Match® are extremely detailed and strictly enforced. If you have been accused of violating the Match®, we can help.

Abramson has dedicated a significant portion of his practice to counseling and representing medical students, IMGs, residents, fellows, and practicing physicians in compliance and disciplinary matters related to ECFMG, USMLE, NBME, and NRMP, including responding to and defending allegations of irregular behavior and violations of the Match® agreement.
