AMOpportunities Avis 22

The most horrible company which i ever had.
1. They charge you upfront and then push you hundreds of papers to complete.
2. You need complete a lot papers which nobody read 1.5 month( my case)
3.Company phone number newer answered after you paid.
4 .Before they charge nobody able to answer your questions.
5. I need to get 2 papers from them to my school( preceptor profile and letter of agreement) 1.5 month and nothing hapend.
6. Coach Wanh one of team member who taking care about my case newer answered phone, replied to emails 3 days late or never.
Never even think about to do any kind of business with this company

I discourage anyone from booking an experience with this company.

I strongly advise against choosing this company. This is based on my personal experience. Before you make the payment, their responses are very prompt. However, after you pay, their replies become extremely slow. Additionally, their instructions for the documents applicants need to submit are unclear. After a long time of submitting your documents, they may tell you that something is not acceptable. After you make the necessary corrections, they take a long time again to inform you that another document is not up to their standards. This results in a continuous waste of time. When you call them, they claim to be busy or say that everything is fine, yet your rotation might start in two weeks, and you still have no idea if your application is approved. You are left in the dark about which hospital you will be applying to and who to contact. Therefore, I want to warn everyone not to choose this company.

This is an absolute con. They falsely advertise the rotations and should be sued for it. They rope you in by advertising big names and top rated residency programs, but in reality the preceptor has no relation to these infamous universities or residency programs. You will be working with the preceptor in their private clinic and will ONLY observe despite paying extra for malpractice insurance. Also note that most of these 'big names' don't accept IMGs. The desperately sought ‘letter of recommendation’ will NOT have a university/hospital letterhead, it will have the preceptors private clinic letterhead. The sales personnel are worse than car salesmen, quick to respond to your enquiries initially, then ignoring you after you’ve paid. When questioned about the details of any given rotation, their responses are lacking. They are just exploiting vulnerable foreigners who have no insight into the process. AMO had falsely advertised on their website - my rotation was 3 days a week and I barely had 20 hours/week of experience which I paid $2800 for. This was advertised as a 6 day a week placement. LORs are not necessary. I matched with 1 LOR from a university hospital that I arranged when in medical school, 1 character reference and 1 LOR from my home country. I did not even use the AMO fake LOR.

Coach Kellie and Coach Megha went above and beyond to ensure I had the best experience possible during my clinical rotations. Without their support, I wouldn't have gained the invaluable insight and experience I gained through my exposure to the U.S. healthcare system.

Was the best experience in my life, I learned a lot and my professor was excelent, it couldn't be better, was absolutely perfect!

For all IMG students who want clerkship in United States ,I truly recommend you AMO! The team followed me through the whole process and they do care about students having the best of their experience.they worked with experienced doctors all over the country ; My experience in medical interfaith center in New York was amazing ;the Doctor really does care about the knowledge.do not hesitate,this is a legit company.

AMOpportunities were correct and provided what I was searching for. There are some things they can upgrade like the information and pictures for the rotations. But overall they matched my expectations and I was more than happy to use their service!

As expected and explained,

Amazing experience with supportive staff and doctors.

Highly recommended!

My rotations with amo opportunities was a great experience and definitely one that changed my direction of my usmle journey. I got very lucky to rotate under Dr.Miller at Windy City orthopedics, one of the highlights was his enthusiasm to teach and discuss every detail of every single patient, and also, previously i have never had a chance to see the progression of a patient and follow up which is quiet important in the field of orthopedics. This clinical experience gave me an opportunity to experience the working of orthopedics in the US and also affirm my decision to continue this path

Very helpful and responsive people at AMO helped me with the entire rotation experience. From the visa process to the end of the rotation, they were available for any queries that arose. The application dashboard is also very intuitive and easy to understand and use, which makes the whole process easier.

Excelent experience working along Dr. B in ophthalmology, the whole program is a great insight into what you will be working in, the AMOpportunities program leaders were very kind and helpful, and made everything posible.

I had a great telemedicine rotation with AMO! It had exceeded my expectations on virtual clinical rotations. I had the chance to participate in interviewing hundreds of patients during my 4-week rotation at Sterling Heights, Michigan. I was also able to have a good grasp of how to use the EMR because we were taught and tasked to properly record the history, PE, diagnosis and management on the EMR under the supervision of the Attending Physician. AMO’s customer service is also great they responded promptly to any questions or concerns that I had all throughout the rotation. Thanks AMOpportunities!

It all happened a month ago but I was still too sad, tired and frustrated to write anything here.
I started an observership at a dermatology clinic in New York, an experience that I had dreamed since before the pandemic started. I am a dermatologist in Brazil and I had already done another observership at a dermatology office in 2019, arranged with another company.

Anyway, the experience was terrible. The physician and the staff were educated and polite, but the place was very dirty. The physician was very old fashioned, he sad he does not trust in modern medicine and in drugs/pills. But this was not the problem, the main issue was how dirty and deorganized the place was, definitely should be report to the sanitary agencies in USA. I complained and they transfer me to another office BUT it was not a medical office, there was no physicians there ( and I am not talking about the fact that they were not expecting me, they did not know I was coming and etc..), it was a physician assistant office, with no doctors.

I asked for a refund and they did not give me one. I took photos abou the place just to have the proof of how bad it was, there was no way I could stand keep going there.

I am still very sad with it all, I spend thousand of dollars with it, considering all the money I spent with accomodations and flights tickets…

I am an international medical graduate and I used their services more than three times. I matched to my top choice residency program. You can find really good quality US clinical experience from this company.

Each time I wanted to do a rotation, Coach Wahn provided me with clear instructions and answered my questions quickly, in a timely manner. I haven't had any problems with the rotations and the AMO opportunities.

They have lots of advantages compared to similar companies. The best feature they have, you can easily see available rotations and time frames on their website. They don't push you to talk over the phone and buy their rotation. Everything is pretty well explained on their website and you can rely on that information. My experience with other companies was a bit stressful because of this reason; when I reached out to other companies they wanted to talk over the phone to convince me or they added me to a WhatsApp group just because I wanted to see available rotations. So AMO is way more convenient than any other company.

The only drawback is some rotations are really expensive. If you have any chance, do your rotations in universities when you are a med student by using VSLO so the cost would be much lower. I was already a graduate when I decided to pursue a career in the US. But, I am happy that I chose AMO.

My experience with AMO was really good, the advisor and coach I had were great ,they explained the whole process and made it smooth for me to get a rotation program. The preceptor was also friendly and ready to teach us. It was worth it.

great experience, coach available and very helpful

It was a wonderful experience, I got to see and learn a lot of things. I also learnt about my weaknesses and where I need to improve on.
Thanks once again.

I have did a couple of rotations with different agency. AMO was the most organized and useful.

Thanks to AMO I was able to get the much-needed USCE and LoRs.
They assist you with the program selection and any issues you might have with the program.
