Doctor of Medicine

Georgetown American University's Doctor of Medicine program trains students for a career in clinical medicine over four years, organized into two distinct phases. The first two years cover preclinical sciences, giving students a grounding in the foundational biomedical subjects that underpin later clinical work. The following two years move into clinical sciences, where students rotate through hospital and healthcare settings to build hands-on patient-care experience, supported by the university's network of clinical affiliates, including sites in the United States. The program is run by GAU's School of Medicine in Georgetown, Guyana, and sits alongside the university's Premedical Sciences program as a pathway into the MD track. Resources made available to enrolled students include dedicated preclinical and clinical sciences support, information on affiliated teaching hospitals, and access to the faculty delivering each phase of the curriculum. Admissions enquiries for the program are handled through GAU's Admissions Office in Georgetown.
