A Doctor Practice in U.K with a foreign MBBS Graduate

Post by Karun » Wed Oct 31, 2018 8:23 am

Dear All,

I am graduated with M.B.B.S degree from a University in Sri Lanka in 2014. I have a year of internship experience in the field of Medicine and Surgery. Also, I have two years of experience as a Medical office in the Neurology field. In addition, I passed in the M.R.C.P part-1 examination Last year. I am going to sit for the M.R.C.P Part-2 exam next year.

I am planning to move to U.K and practice in U.K as a Doctor. Anyone could guide me on the process that I to follow?

Many thanks.

Kind Regards,
Karun

Contact the British Medical Association, I am sure they will be able to guide you appropriately

There are many foreign doctors who are working in the UK. With internship, your path would begin with the IELTS, then passing PLAB 1 and 2, and then obtaining your full registration. This process for me took about a year.

The best place to start with this is the General Medical Council: https://www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and ... ister/plab

Also there are some very active Facebook groups which may be of help. This one might be a good one to start with: facebook weblink removed bymoderator

In addition, one of my good friends xxxxxxx has a very well-written blog that explains all the steps comprehensively: weblink removed by moderator

All the best! The NHS needs you!
