AmeriClerkships Medical Society (AMS) was established on March 12, 2007, to help U.S. medical educators meet the challenges of improving resident preparation and selection process. In our view, this begins with access to a network of U.S. physicians and teaching hospitals, determined to see physicians of all nationalities succeed. AMS is also the intellectual property owner of the ‘World’s Largest Online Booking Platform for U.S. Internships, Externships & Clerkships‘, known as MyClinicals. This live online system enables prospective physicians to choose to be mentored by any of AMS’ 700+ affiliated U.S. physicians.
Today, AMS and MyClinicals together are a powerful professional physician network that streamline and accelerate physician career development in the United States. Behind the scenes, AMS is supported by an incredibly gifted team that prides itself on accountability, transparency and tracking their members’ residency-placement outcomes. Say hello to your new best friends:
Dr. Mizani is the founder of AmeriClerkships and serves as our President. As the former Chief of Morehouse School of Medicine’s Family Medicine Residency Program and a member of two U.S. residency selection committees, Dr. Mizani moved to the United States from Iran at the age of 14 in order to survive the Iran-Iraq War in 1994. Dr. Mizani is a current AMA-IMG Section committee member and a columnist for Residency Program Alert, giving him first-hand knowledge of what it takes to secure residency positions. 2020 Match marks Dr. Mizani’s 19th consecutive year serving as a consultant to over 5,000 medical students and graduates and his decades of contribution to creating access to care has led to over 20,000 patients being treated by Dr. Mizani’s former students each day!
As one of the first pioneers at AmeriClerkships, Nerissa is one of the most powerful advocates a U.S. medical residency candidate could hope to align with. During her 10 years of service at AmeriClerkships, Nerissa has mastered the art of carefully syncing what our affiliated U.S. licensed physicians, hospitals and mentors can provide with what medical students and graduates from across the globe need, all in order to compete as formidably as possible in the annual U.S. medical residency ‘Match’. Today, Nerissa is one of the most senior members of AmeriClerkships, both as a Senior Residency Enrollment Strategist, and as a strategic ally to the hundreds of AmeriClerkships Members she collaborates with in order to ‘Make Doctors’. Nerissa spends her free time with her loving family in beautiful Southern California.
A graduate of the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business, Omer Malik comes to AmeriClerkships with over a decade of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. In addition to his natural ability to recognize what makes a great physician in his role as a Senior Residency Enrollment Strategist, Omer has shared, trained and led every AmeriClerkships employee over the past 10 years by helping them develop their own sense of affinity for strong customer service. His sensitivity towards all cultural backgrounds has helped him be recognized by all AmeriClerkships Members as an instrumental figure when it comes to U.S. medical residency-prep, U.S. teaching hospital placement and cultural exchange.
Jacquelyn Mizani is another senior level employee, having been a part of AmeriClerkships’ growth since early 2009. By leveraging her vast knowledge of AmeriClerkships’ interworkings as well as her comprehensive understanding of the U.S. medical residency-prep industry, Jacquelyn is able to manage the AmeriClerkships Accounting Department, support all our employees, as well as provide excellent customer service to our affiliated physicians and members alike. Jacquelyn is married to Dr. Mizani, and they have a 5-year-old son Nicholas (who wants to be a police officer) and a 3-year-old daughter Victoria (who wants to be a princess).

With years of experience at AmeriClerkships, Tim’s role has grown to include facilitating its best business practices as Operations Manager.

Graduating from the University of California-Los Angeles with a Bachelor’s degree in Microbiology, Carlos Martinez brings his science and research background to the Credentialing Department at AmeriClerkships. With experience in clinical research trials, public health, medical education and clinical rotations, Carlos welcomes each and every new Member into AmeriClerkships, helping them navigate the steps required to become Fully Enrolled & Credentialed at AmeriClerkships.
