What is an intern doctor?

Intern doctors, also known as medical interns, are recent medical school graduates undergoing their first year of supervised clinical training in a hospital or healthcare setting. This internship year is essential for gaining hands-on experience in patient care and rotating through various medical specialties. Interns work under the supervision of senior doctors and are involved in tasks such as taking patient histories, performing physical exams, and assisting in procedures. Completing this internship is typically required before advancing to residency or obtaining full medical licensure.
