The time it takes to get a medical license:
The time will depend upon which state you choose, how quickly your application and
verifications reach the board, how complete your information is, how busy the board
is and how often the board meets. The average processing time for most of our
clients is three months, however; it is possible to get a license in some
states in two months or less.
Some Examples...
Some medical boards, like the Medical Board of California, estimate that from the
time they receive your application it will take them 90 days just to review it. Many
clients who've applied for a California medical license are getting licensed within a
week or two of their first 90 day review. Traveling to California to do a Live Scan as
opposed to using fingerprint cards will reduce the time it takes for a background
check to come back. Live Scan results come back within days as opposed to months
with the cards. Verification items are followed up with aggressively to make sure
they've been sent to the board, and clients elect to pay the licensing fee upfront to
expedite the issuance of the license number.
The Medical Board of California has recently moved and are experiencing some
disruption with their telephone system. If you're having trouble reaching a member of
the Medical Board's staff, you can e-mail them at webmaster@mbc.ca.gov or call the
main phone lines at (916) 263-2382.
The Florida Board of Medicine usually takes a minimum of 30 days from the time
they receive the application to do an initial review. Florida is now permitting
administrative approval of applications that do not contain any "red flags." These
applicants are getting licensed a couple weeks after the initial review because their
files no longer have to go before the Board.
The New Jersey State Board of Medical Examiner's procedure is to wait for
most third party verifications to arrive before the medical license application is
assigned to an analyst. Once the analyst reviews the file and finds it complete a
license is issued shortly afterwards. Two of our clients were recently licensed in New
Jersey within 6 weeks of submitting their applications to the board.
The Virginia Board of Medicine is another well organized and fast board when it
comes to licensing. One of our clients was recently licensed in Virginia within 4
weeks of submitting his application. The Virginia board has an organized mail room
and items are seldom lost reducing the need to re-request items during the follow up
process.
One of the busiest boards is the Texas Medical Board. For awhile it was taking up
to a year for many doctors to get licensed there. The board has recently improved
its processes to keep up with and better serve their applicants. One way was to
reduce the amount of work experience to be verified from 10 years down to five.
Another is to allow applicants, that completed their post graduate training more than
five years ago, to submit copies of their completion certificates rather than requiring
the hospitals to complete a three page form. They've also added an online
communication system for applicants. The system provides detailed explanations of
any items required to process a physician licensure application, and provides a
message center where applicants and Board staff can exchange messages.
The system, called Licensure Inquiry System of Texas (LIST), has been available to
physician licensure applicants who have already been assigned to an analyst since
May 13, 2008. Other physician licensure applicants will be added to the system in
stages. All applicants should be able to access the system by June 1, 2008. We
recently assisted a physician who was licensed in four and 1/2 months. That's
progress. Kudos to Texas.
Many medical boards don't require medical license applications to sit and wait for a
monthly or quarterly board meeting unless there are issues such as malpractice
cases or disciplinary actions. These boards allow administrative approval. For
example, the following boards, once your application is complete, license
generally within a week or two; Connecticut Board of Medicine, Delaware Board
of Medical Examiners, Georgia Board of Medical Examiners, Illinois, Indiana Medical
Board, Maine Board of Licensure, Michigan Board of Medicine, New Hampshire
Board of Medicine, New York State Board of Medicine, Ohio State Medical Board,
Pennsylvania State Board of Medicine and Tennessee Board of Medical Examiners.

Client Comments...
"Medical License Direct did what
they said they would do. Direct, to
the point and professional."
~ Larry Blob, MD, Virginia in 6 weeks
"Medical License Direct's services
were worth every penny of the cost,
and more. The staff at MLD were
courteous, professional and very
efficient, and really took the
headache out of this sometimes
painful process. Even more, they
gave very personalized attention to
my unique circumstances, and I
really felt like I had someone in my
corner. Thanks so much!"

"Excellent service. MLD was able to
penetrate the walls of the board to
get quick answers and speed up
the process. There is only one
answer to licensure - Medical
License Direct."
~ Eric Smith, MD, New Jersey in 6

"I can only say FANTASTIC,
regarding my experience working
with MLD. I worked with Kat Miller
who did an outstanding job with
what I thought was needed to be
done. Then she went way beyond
the call of duty helping me and
directing me in particulars of
licensing that I didn't even know
about. She was extremely quick to
reply to emails and answer any
questions. She took care of
reference letters, following up to
see if they were sent, as well as all
correspondence with medical
school rotations and transcripts.
Again awesome job by Medical
License Direct, LLC, and I highly
recommend them to anyone getting
licensed anywhere."
~ Joseph Schaaf, MD, Wyoming

was able to continue working
rather than toil over a cumbersome
license application. Thanks!"
