As a future doctor, communication, observation and interaction will be the tools that help you become the best doctor. While studying at an International university with world class faculties you are exposed to different cultures, languages and people. This exposure gives you the confidence to interact with your patients regardless of their background.Part of being an effective doctor is about connecting with your patient. Being able to really listen and understand all the factors that may have contributed to their condition. Without being able to listen and create rapport with your patient, the patient will be less willing to speak. When you study abroad, you automatically learn how to adapt and overcome any social barriers.
What are the benefits of International Medical & Clinical Experiences?
Exposure to a wider variety of illnesses
Whether you're a medical student or a resident, you will likely see illnesses and unusual clinical presentations of conditions you would probably not see at your school or hospital. You will probably also have more latitude in clinical planning and get to perform more procedures.
Learning about different Health Systems at World Class Universities
Rotating abroad, either as a medical student or as a resident, you learn a considerable amount of information about patients' experiences under different legal healthcare structures. Given possible upcoming changes in the healthcare system, it could be additionally helpful to have experiences in practical clinical work overseas to better understand the context of the changes.

It sounds simple but doing a clinical clerkship overseas can provide a unique cultural understanding that affects your subsequent training. Residents surveyed in the above study stated that two years after completing an international clinical rotation, the experience continued to positively impact their awareness of cultural and socioeconomic factors and clinical and language skills. Additionally, the survey found that experience with different medical systems can help participant's gain better cultural understanding of medical care.
