No genuine visitor should spend more than 6 months in the US during any rolling 12 month window.

I believe if you have your valid visa and state a valid reason for every entry into the country you'll be stamped 6 months for every time you are allowed in. You may have to explain to the officer at the border why you are being frequent and staying longer though.
I used to be a flight attendant and i must have done a lot of trips on a two year visa, every time i was stamped in six months even if i said i was staying just the night.
Hope this helps.

The POE officer will decide how long a stay to grant you, if he/she decides to grant you entry. If you apply for an entry in October 2012 after having spent 3 months (Jan 2012 to Apr 2012) in the US, you should be okay.

anyone ?
 
Your potential employer will need to petition you for a work visa, most likely a J-1 if you are in the medical field. Once that petition is approved you will need to apepar at a US consulate for the relevant visa.
