ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ส.ค. 2024
- It's an unfortunate truth that many international medical graduates (IMGs) sabotage their own road to UK by getting caught up in the rumor mill of things that may happen or things that someone else has heard, or without understanding why certain things are the way they are.
Our viewers often ask us to breakdown countless news articles, screenshots, comments and what have you, saying it is our responsibility to do so. The reality is, it is your responsibility to understand the information that comes across your desk. All we are here to do is provide vetted and sourced content. And that is what we hope to continue to do in this video.

00:23 Things to first understand
03:05 Removal of RLMT (Resident Labor Market Test)
04:38 Applying for competitive specialties

05:31 Your PMQ can exempt you from exams

You got this!
Thanks doctor for explaining things in a very simple n efficient way .
You're welcome 😁
Hi. Thanks for this informational video. I'm an IMG specialized in Epidemiology and considering moving to the UK so your video was very insightful. Need to find out more on the health worker visa.
👍
Great to hear this, I am so happy to see your positivity.♥
Aw thanks 😊
Thanks Ibreez! P.S- this lip color shade really suits you ( more than the usual red )😃
Thanks :) It's def one of my favorites!
Thank you Dr Ibreez,
Your channel is amazing
You're very welcome 😁
Thank you for these videos! You're right, a lot of people don't understand the process and so there is misinformation being spread. I was fed misinformation as well so as usual I decided to research and find out for myself. Your videos cleared up a lot of doubts I had. Thank you.
Glad to hear we could help!
This has been a great resource, thanks for the insight
Glad it was helpful!
Thanks for the information and making this video..
I am one of the ones who requested this 😅
You're welcome 😁
Thanks for the practical advice! Cheers!
You're welcome ☺️
I love your channel and totally appreciate the effort and time you guys are putting to help IMGs.
I have a bachelor degree in general medicine and surgery (M. B. CH. B) and also Board-certified in internal medicine (4 years of study and practice) oet cleared, and MRCP part 1 and 2 written exam, without Paces exam due to shortage of exam centers overseas because of Covid-19, The Question is can I have the opportunity to find a job with all of these criteria? and could I secure a Registrar post?
I now MTI is one route. a
If you're waiting for PACES, your best bet would be MTI if you qualify.
I have seen a ton of your videos and ibrahims too..great stuff, always encouraging, and I think most “FAQ” are answered..so keep making those videos… just a small suggestion..if you could make small videos of 5 min of simple FAQ’s..
Cheers..!!
P.S. : u left the us of a😱😱..n I missed that video… I m going right now n checking it out
We have some FAQs from when we first started the channel, but we will try and come out with more!
Hello Ibrez I hope you're really doing well and facing any sort of difficulties and if so, I pray everything goes the best out there with you ❤️
And in regard to your video, I would just like to raise an appreciation to all this kind of honesty and genuineness you speak with.. Being over there, reflecting real life advice and situations is the best you can fo for everyone
Thank you so much and for your team as well❤️❤️
It's our pleasure 😊
love all this, its a great relief as well. Im going to be around 50 though when I finish my MBBS(career changer ) but as one who is Autistic/has a intellectual disability the US is horrid for services with adults with intllectual disabilities so UK it is.
Good luck!
Great video. I am a fresh medical graduate; completed this year, 2022 june. As I know foundation year is passed. What other routes can I use to enter to work … other training programs apart from ukfp.. thank you
If you don't have an acceptable pattern of internship, you cannot work in the UK outside of UKFP.
What is the pattern of internship in UK ?
How could a 3 years gab away from medical field effect starting a career in the uk?
Wonderful content doctor , Thanks . I am waiting for my final year results and i hope to have my PMQ by january . if i dont have any publications or extra degree's does that make it hard for me to get through SJT or begin the foundation programme .
Absolutely correct ✅✅

Can someone mention why recently people have been saying that it is NOT a good time to work in NHS now? What is their reasoning?
Most of it has come from what we mentioned in this video and ones we've done before, like inability to enter competitive training or fears regarding pay, working hours etc. Other aspects are economically related in terms of a recession, even though this is something currently impacting most of the world given the current political climate.
Hello. While creating my GMC account I chose option not done with my internship.. as I’m doing my intership now.. so after completing my internship can I change it

Hello! I've just found you channel and loved it straight away!! I have graduated from Medical School in Italy and I would like to to come to the UK to start my specialty. You talked about the possibility of not taking the PLAB exam depending on which EU country you graduated from. Do you know where I can find the list of these countries to know if mine is included? Thank you very much in advance!!!
You would be exempt. Please also see: th-cam.com/video/0CM1fyQCfIM/w-d-xo.html

Hi! I am an IMG from India who graduated in 2021 and I have one and a half year gap as I was preparing for the exams to get into residency in my country. Will that gap be a major hurdle in the future to obtain a job in NHS? Can I still make it if I start my PLAB journey now?
I have the same question
1) No
2) Yes
Yes or no ?
Your first question, the answer is no. The gap year will not affect your job offers at all. And your 2nd question, the answer is yes. As long as you have a recognised Medical degree from a recognised Medical school, and you've been out of school 5 years ago, you'll still qualify
@@okumangodfreyemmanuel7615 hi! What if you have a gap of more than 5 years? Do you still qualify?

Hi , I've just graduated med school and finished my internship ( fy1 equal) and now Im caught between doing à masters in biotechnology and pathology or start residency in my country until I get à plab seat and pass plab 1...Which is better for an Img ? Which one will help me find a job in the uk?
And if I start residency Im I obliged to continue in that same speciality training in the uk?
Thanks a lot for your videos ✌️
Your contents are getting better day by day 😇
Aw thanks 😊
Do you think the jobs will start getting saturated 3-4 years down the line and the UK might again make changes to visa etc to favor British doctors?
Unlikely. Read the GMC workforce report 2022 to understand why.
@@RoadToUK Thank you! I will
Hi, I am a Doctor from Sri Lanka. I graduated in 2018 and Finished my Internship in 2019. I have been working in a Obs and Gyn units for last 2 years. My Wife is coming to UK for her Masters in Environmental Sustainability. Is it possible to me to do MRCOG in UK while I am in the UK under dependent Visa? BTW Thanks for your great videos ❤️
Do IELTS, and apply for PLAB, get GMC registration and then apply for a training job in obs and gyn
You'd not be able to be to take all parts of MRCOG unless you are in OB/GYN clinical practice (home country or UK).
Thank You :)
You're welcome 😁
pls make videos on ACCA jobs in UK for candidates outside UK
Sorry we don't know what that is

What's your comment about NHS doctors overwork and underpaid?
Hi, please see: th-cam.com/video/WL4BsU2dUB4/w-d-xo.html & th-cam.com/video/GTn9BPDLCR0/w-d-xo.html & th-cam.com/video/X-Y0U2CRaA4/w-d-xo.html & th-cam.com/video/2NmeH_z2vUY/w-d-xo.html & th-cam.com/video/2IfxX6WkGPo/w-d-xo.html
Britain's experience so far has shown that the more doctors (many imported from overseas) the NHS got, the less productive it is. Figures showed that even with more doctors and nurses in the NHS, it a actually treated fewer patients than pre-pandemic levels. One reason could be the new recruits were having to be supervised and took.up time.
And another reason could be Britain's policy during the pandemic which medically is attributing to an overall higher immunity and hence less load on the system.
Your comment is as uninformed as it is lamentable.
Do the gap matters??
No.
@@RoadToUK Please explain.
I don't like how GMC is always threatening to take away your licence

I'm grateful for this video but not sure If I should trust it:/ sorry I just found out about this channel but the fact that people deciding not to come to uk hurts your channel bothers me
Sorry, people not deciding to come to the UK doesn't hurt our channel. If we wanted to shut down the channel tomorrow, we can and it wouldn't affect us any.
For more than four years, we've made videos and written articles about how international doctors can come and work in the UK with no ill intent. We aren't a job agency nor are we headhunters.
What we (unlike the individuals who made the video we have reacted to) are, however, are actual NHS doctors with real NHS work experience. It's up to you whether or not to trust our experience, but again, unlike the original video, we've given countless cited references in the description box backing up every single thing we've said.
Ultimately, what you choose to believe or not believe is up to you, but it's funny how quick you are to judge trust in a situation like this
Hey.... I do support everything you say. But nhs needs middle grade doctors not junior ones. Even specialists are willing to work as junior doctors in the uk. And fresh graduates literally have no chance of getting a job in the uk.
Except fresh graduates are getting jobs. We are in the working environment and see it on a daily basis, and even get emails or messages from many who have done it.
There is a shortage across the board, you just have to ensure your job application is made properly and you are applying for the right jobs.

i will tell you my story. I have done my fy1 in india. Worked here for another year. Passed plab 2. Got clinical attachment. Got job offers from 3 different consultants in medicine (asked me to apply whenever i see a vacancy in the hospital).Have done als. Have 2 audits in india. One research paper published. Got called for interviews 4 times. Received comments that i did well but someone more experienced was there and they got the jobs. Now i am working. Planning to do mrcp 1. And hoping to land a job soon. (For one job, one of my imt3 equivalent in india and me competed for the same post and guess what she got it and i didnt).
I have 2 cousins working in the uk. One is gp trainee and other is an anaesthesia trainee. Both imgs. They had it so much easier in 2017 and 2018 time respectively.
Any thoughts or help will be appreciated?
