Jamaica isn’t just world-famous for its culture, beaches, and music — it’s also home to some of the Caribbean’s most respected medical schools.

Institutions like the University of the West Indies  and the All American Institute of Medical Sciences (AAIMS) have earned recognition through CAAM-HP (Caribbean Accreditation Authority for Medicine and other Health Professions). This accreditation ensures Jamaican medical graduates meet international standards, making them competitive in pathways to the US, UK, Canada, and beyond.
