@@RoadToUK Thank you 🙏🏼
Please make a detail video on pediatrics.
Okay 👌
With regards to the Radiology taster weeks, would a clinical elective done during medical school count or does it have to be postgraduate speficially?
I am confused about the CESR pathway.
1. You mention becoming a consultant, not doctor, what does that mean? Can I work as a radiologist in UK like every other radiologist if I go through the CESR pathway if I finish my specialty in another country recognized by the UK?
2. Is it possible to do 2 years (24 months) in radiology in another country and then due to being overqualified enter radiology in UK and continue my specialty at the ST2 or ST3 level in a UK hospital?
3. If I can continue my specialty do I have to do the MRSA exam as well or go straight to FRCR?
Hello, thank u for ur continuous hard work. If i have no experience in radiology, does that mean i am not eligible to apply for radiology speciality? Thank u for ur time.
Thank you sir for the detailed explanation. I have a question. What if someone has a post graduate degree in medical Ultrasound ( a 1 year program ) and one year of solely ultrasound experience after completion of the post graduate degree? Does it count as a total of 24 months experience? Hence being overqualified for ST1?
Thank you in anticipation of your reply
Thank you for your video. I am studying medicine in Italy and planning to apply for the foundation program in UK. I have started to build my portfolio during my medical school years. Will having an experience at a research lab in Italy or USA will be beneficial even though if I don't have the opportunity to publish a paper? Also, attending online courses on radiology will be beneficial if I get the cerficificate?
Please make a video on gastroenterology 🥺
I really enjoyed this one. Thanks for all you doo
👍🏻
@@RoadToUK Thank you! I am really looking out for it.
Please make a video on orthopedics
We've already made one.
Could you make a detailed video on anesthesiology??
👍🏻
Please make a video on Anesthesia also 🙂
Sure!
if i choose IR in st4 and st5 . Then i will become consultant IR ! so how i superspecialize in IR as if I want to become interventional neuroradiologist.

Please make a video on obs & gyne
Sure!
Please, make a video regarding psychiatry
Sure!

Sure 😊 we do have a consultant interview from oncology if you've not seen that already!
How long will it typically take for building a good portfolio and getting the CREST form signed as far as radiology is concerned, while in a non training job....
Minimum 3 months.
Can we get taster weeks points working in our parent country?
Hello sir!!
If I have done some Teaching or leadership experience over home country is that gonna be count or not
And is there any courses regarding radiology training which could boost our portfolio for ST1
And sir is there any pdf like we have for the CST to count our points regarding portfolio

Thank you for your detailed information. Kindly tell me about if someone want to go to radiology training and have 24 months experience in radiology. What are the options to go to radiology training. If he passed frcr part 1 would he be eligible for St 3 training if yes kindly tell how?
Can the taster week be done outside uk?
Hello!!!
Dear Doctor,
Thanks for a wonderful guidance.
Could you tell me if only MRCP1 & 2 are cleared and paces are not done. Does it count towards points for application.
Kindly, guide.
Thanks
All parts need to be completed.
@@RoadToUK I have the GMC REGISTRATION WITH MD MEDICINE MRCP1 AND 2. Currently, working as a registrar in general medicine, so still I need to complete MRCP PACES for radiology application OR I can apply for it without PACES.
Kindly, enlighten me.
Thanks and Regards
Thank you, Dr.Ibrahim. Does completing foundation year outside the uk and applying through the CREST pathway mean I don't have to complete the PLAB exams and do FY2 in the UK as an IMG?
Does an audit or a Qip in any country carry the same weightage as In UK ?
What sort of teaching can be organised ?
Online /web based presentation
Classroom based
How can I prove GMC that I have done teaching ?
Yes. Get feedback forms completed.
Do we need to have complete MRCP/ MRCS or just parts?
Same question
Hello doctor,
Criteria for a mbbs qualified student without internship, if i am giving mrcp, is it possible to enter after clearing exam? Or need internship aswell
If I sit the MRCP/MRCS in my home country during my internship year could I use that to get GMC registration or would I still need PLAB?
You wouldn't need PLAB in that case.
Hello doctor !!! you are doing a great job !!! i just wanted to know if the MRCGP exam in uk is harder than the usmle exam
They are not comparable exams. MRCGP is a post-graduate qualification. USMLE is just a licensing exam.
Do you have a similar breakdown for public health? I have a few years of experience with public health work as an IMG and currently working as a Teaching fellow
The issue with public health in the UK is that you must be a British national, hence why we haven't covered it.
@@RoadToUK O wow! That's so sad to hear!
Which specialities can we apply for after doing MRCP?
Medical specialties
Can u tell how can I apply after fsc (12) in Pakistan in radiology course
Sir after completing MBBS can I do two MDs like after completing MBBS then after completing MD in Dermatology then can I do MD in Pulmonology then can I start my carrier as Dermatologist and Pulmonologist both in Govt Hospital ? Please reply
Hello Dr,
I have a query!!
Could a fully qualified GP apply for Core surgical training or ST1 radiology?
Because it’s my dream to become a GP alongside surgery or radiology later on as GP work could be draining !!
Yes you could but working as both a GP and surgeon/radiologist in separate roles would be daunting.
Any route for overseas Dental postgraduates to become clinical radilogist in uk after GDC registration?
Thank you for the video. Are international students eligible for apprenticeship programs after completing 5 years radiology of uni?
What do you mean by an apprenticeship program?
I want to apply for my speciality in radiology in uk via royal college rout and CESR way
So I want to know what is the first step that should i do?
It's been discussed in this video. If you feel you need further guidance, please book a session at guidance.roadtouk.com/specialty-training/
Is it necessary to do the research about a topic you want to have a training ?
No but ideally it should be related to the specialty you're applying for.
If i was have radiologist specialis in Indonesia, what pathway i can?
Whichever criteria you meet as outlined in the video.
Can we jump into Clinical radiology after 4 years experience in emergency department
If you meet the criteria to apply, then yes.
If anyone wants to leave after st3 level after finishing exam . Is that degree valid as md general radiology
This is not an academic degree, it's clinical training. Please see here to understand the difference: th-cam.com/video/OEWSOoTzI6Y/w-d-xo.html

No.

Hello sir i wanna ask you i am in health and social care in London can i became a radiologist?
Are you a medical doctor?
@@RoadToUK no i am a student. Doing A level in health and social care. I re search on google they said if you do fdsc its a 2 year so after a level I can study dir radiologist.
and I thought that a Radiologist could only multi specialize as a Oncologist
Aoa! I am studying bachelor as radiology! i will complete and get degree in radiology... Can you help us how to get into Uk system...?? what's the procedure for me specially because i am not a MBBS or MD student.. lots of love from🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰🇵🇰
Best branch in UK is GP and Pathology overall.
In money aspect , it is Plastic surgery and Orthopaedics.
Least satisfied ones are Emergency medicine, General medicine Subspecialties.
Radiology is not a very respected branch in UK like in India
Why do you think radiology is not a respectable branch? It's a fairly competitive process.
If its not respected, then why are there thousands of doctors applying to be one? 🤦♂️
This is just plain false - what are you basing your assumptions on?
