I had a PGY-1 residency training program 3 years ago. I got a PGY-1 training certificate from the PGY-1 program which said I provided satisfactory service in the clinical rotation. The pgy-1 program did not renew my residency contract; no specific reason was told. Residency contract appeal was not approved by GME.
I had tried to apply to a new residency opportunity, but no one worked. Some programs said I got negative reference, but I cannot know the content of the negative reference from PGY-1 program.
Recently a program I applied to asked me to verify the lawsuit I was involved in in my PGY-1 year. They contacted my PGY-1 program and received the lawsuit information about me from them. This is the first time for me to know the content of the PGY-1 reference. Previously my PGY-1 program asked signing a contract about confidential reference with the program I applied to. They were not allowed to tell me the reference content. and this is the reason that I did not know what the PGY-1 program said about me. I was shocked by the lawsuit information because I did not know it. I realized how my career was destroyed by the PGY-1 reference 3 years after the PGY-1 training.
The residency training record is important for a physician's career. I had worked as a junior physician for 6 years before I came to the US. I had finished all of the USMLE steps (1,2,3) in the US. I do not think what happened to me is fair. But I do not know which section of AAMC can handle this kind of rumor issue. Can I seek your suggestions about resolving the problem?
