Hello doctor Can we do MRCP dermatology in Pakistan also? And what is the pathway?

[@chaymaejroundi]

thank you so much for this video, can you please tell me more about how to be a specialty doctor, as i'm already a dermatologist in morocco

[@mahlaqarana255]

Can you please mention about GP with special interest in dermatology route

[@theskinmedic]

It essentially means doing a dermatology job in the hospital, alongside your GP work. You can speak to your local Dermatology department to see what the process is.

Isn’t internal medicine training 3 years instead of 2?

[@theskinmedic]

Internal medicine is 3 years but you can apply after year 2.

Can u please do a video on CF job you did with more details, did u act up as spec doctor of just SHO with usual nonsense jobs ? Thanks

[@theskinmedic]

I did a CF job in Dermatology, rather than as a specialty doctor. As Dermatology is an outpatient based specialty, you don’t really get any ward based jobs and you get a lot of time in clinics.

Definitely, get your GMC license to practise medicine in the UK first. Afterwards, you can consider applying to Dermatology jobs.

Hmm you will need to check with the GMC (General Medical Council) as you may require to show evidence for your medical training.

[@theskinmedic]

No, it can’t be counted towards your dermatology training but can be used as evidence for dermatology application!

[@muntaha.tamim.1305]

Hello After doing msc in clinical dermatology in uk… is there a any chance to practise as a dermatologist????

[@theskinmedic]

Unfortunately, having this isn’t sufficient to become a dermatologist in UK. You need to check GMC for further guidance.

[@ShehrbanoKhan-wm3yd]

[@theskinmedic]

I did basic medical degree MBChB and then proceeded to do medical training and further specialty training in Dermatology 😅
