Looking for some guidance from anyone familiar with Geriatrics fellowships.

I understand that ERAS and virtually every ACGME Geriatrics fellowship lists completion of a 3-year ACGME-accredited Internal Medicine or Family Medicine residency as a mandatory eligibility requirement.

However, I've met a few physicians at conferences who told me they completed Geriatrics fellowship training in the U.S. prior to IM/FM training (of course, their home country residency may or may not have played a part), and I'm trying to understand how they got there.

Are there programs that occasionally consider applicants outside the standard ERAS pathway, or are these opportunities found only through direct networking with program directors?

If so, how do you identify these programs? Do people simply email every fellowship program to ask if they'll consider exceptional applicants, or is there another way to find programs that may have some flexibility?

I'd really appreciate any guidance or personal experiences. Thank you!
