Thank you Doctor for such an amazing content! I'm currently doing my rotational internship in India and I'm looking forward to do my PG from UK in Radiology. I was wondering if there is any particular exam to directly get into Radiology residency like the MRCP OR MRCS. Is Plab the only pathway for Radiology ?

@lavnya70 3 жыл бұрын

Probably best to take PLAB if you are a newly qualified doctor. MRCP or MRCS is not needed for radiology specialty.

Hi there! I’m a medical graduate from Ukraine! And my studies were for 6 years, we as students had a lot of practical training for the last three years in the hospitals , does that count as internship or some form of experience, as I have read on the GMC website in order to apply directly FY2 if the student had a period of pre-graduate clinical experience outside the UK. This is usually referred to as an internship.? So would that mean I can go directly for FY2?

@lavnya70 3 жыл бұрын

I think you can apply for FY2 if you have completed a GMC approved internship. GMC internship www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and-licensing/join-the-register/before-you-apply/check-if-your-practical-training-internship-is-acceptable

However, the Korean government went very wrong and they just don't let us take a license test this year. (We took part in a demonstration against gov', that's why) Anyway, I was wondering if I wasn't able to get an official license this year, could I sit PLAB 1 test after graduation? (Graduation will be in January next year) Probably I could sit my license test in September, next year. I just don't want to waste my time. Thank you.

Do you mean dermatology specialty training (residency). To do specialty training in dermatology in UK, you need GMC registration. To obtain GMC registration you can take PLAB or MRCP. MRCP is probably best to pursue dermatology.

Hi! I am a "FY2" in Malaysia. I plan to become a paediatrician and work in the UK. Which pathway would you recommend? (1) Take PLAB and start FYP in the UK or (2) complete MRCPCH and apply as a ST1 in the UK?

@lavnya70 4 жыл бұрын

If you want to work and settle in UK, best to come here as soon as possible. So I would suggest to take PLAB and apply for trust grade (SHO level), post in UK. After 6-12 months, apply for specialty training in paediatrics ST1. It is also much easier to take MRCPCH while doing paediatric specialty training here.

Yes you can apply for FY2 or SHO post. FY2 post is also called SHO. Do check out this video on UK doctors grades/titles kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rKd0Y9ek2t2pdmw.html

I am from Nepal and I have completed my MBBS in the year 2018 along with 1 year internship here. I was working as a medical officer for nearly 18 months then I left my job 5 months back to prepare for PG here. But now I want to do PLAB. I heard we should not leave job while doing preparation for PLAB which can bring some consequences for job placement in UK, now I want to know should I be preparing for PLAB or not? Will they accept me for not working for 5-6 months here? Or Do I still have some hope? Please kindly give me some advice. Thank you!

Hello doctor I am little bit confused 🤷‍♂️ regarding after Plab scenario. After clearing Plab examination if I will sit for an interview is there any criteria or minimum experience should be there to apply for job ?

@lavnya70 4 жыл бұрын

Not really. If you are a newly qualified doctor, you can apply for FY2 post after PLAB. If you have more experience, you can apply for a more senior post. Do check out this video AFTER PLAB- WHAT NEXT? @VgDk and Do check out this video on UK doctors grades/titles @wEF8

After MBBS, internship and PLAB, apply for FY2 jobs in UK. After FY2, apply for internal medicine training (IMT) (3 years). After IMT, apply for higher speciatly training in your desired medical specialty eg endocirnology (4 years).

No, if you have already completed internship and your internship meets the GMC criteria, you don't have to repeat it. GMC internship www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and-licensing/join-the-register/before-you-apply/check-if-your-practical-training-internship-is-acceptable

Hi Lavanya Your videos are really helpful! Do you know if GMC requires experience after internship and if there is a career gap due to personal reasons, will it be an issue? Could you also make a video on applying for clinical attachment for Image?

Hi, you probably need to explain the career gaps. If you are back in clinical practice it should be ok.

Hello Dr. I have completed my internship in sri lanka and planned to do plab. I have no idea to settle down in UK. How is doing PGs in UK ( probably I'll do general medicine or haematology)? Is it better to do pg here or plab and then a PG at uk? What is the duration of general medicine and haematology PG training programs at UK

@lavnya70 3 жыл бұрын

Hi, if you plan to work and settle long term in the UK, best to do specialty training (residency) in the UK. Do check out these videos- 1. Specialty Training (Residency) in UK? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bM52fcqGktbXdXk.html. I explain how to apply for training programme in this video- kzfaq.info/get/bejne/b7RpfrWVp5e3e3U.html. Pathway for medical specialties- After MBBS, internship and PLAB, apply for FY2 jobs in UK. After FY2 (1 year), apply for internal medicine training (IMT) (2-3 years). During IMT, take MRCP. After IMT and MRCP, apply for higher specialty training in your desired medical specialty eg cardiology, respiratory, acute medicine, neurology, gastroenterology, renal medicine, haematology etc. (4-5 years). Medical specialties are normally 6-7 years after FY2.
