@adrianeraldo, at 54, you can think of other options that get you into the Health Care professions, such as Physician Assistant and in rural areas or smaller clinics in the outskirts, you're most likely the main 'physician' overlooking LPN, RN's etc. Another option is to go for Nurse Practitioner, they're on top of the nursing chain and have very similar roles as a physician assistant... I would recommend you searching for similar professions and noting down their requirements.
I'm just 8 years your junior, I've thought about the medical professions, it really depends on where you want to get into and if you 'fit' in that role. It's not going to be an easy pathway, but you may be able to get there with the proper direction or guidance into those fields. Some students who have finished their Caribbean MD's are not able to get residency, they can't practice, thus they find alternative professions that are high paying but not patient centered.
