Very informative video for fellow IMG doctors who want to practice in the UK. Since Medical Practitioners has been added to the Shortage Occupation List, IMGs are also eligible to apply for training jobs. Communication and confidence are key in PLAB 2.

I'm Frenchman from northern France. I feel no connection whatsoever to this place of its people. I still have two more years to go as a junior Doctor in GP, and then I'll be free to move away. I quite recently discovered Scotland, and realized that I absolutely love it there. So, when I'll be done with the last two training years, how shall I proceed with my Belgian Degreed ? Should I just send it to GMC, prepare for IELTS, and the apply for the visa ?

Hi, thank you for this video! I'm going to graduate in Italy at the beginning of 2020 and would like to continue my training in the UK. Still I'm uncertain of what to do next: should I get first a license in Italy or should I apply for the FP? Thanks :D

Thank you! I was waiting for this video. I have two questions, I hope you can answer me: 1) Is it recommended to do a pre-graduate experience in UK to increase your chance to get in Foundation Programme? 2) Is it easy for a IMG to access in specialty?

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Hi! Any prior experience doesn’t count towards a place in the foundation programme. It’s a point system with points given for academic performance and published papers etc I’m not so sure about IMG and access to specialities. It depends on your portfolio and audits and general interest into the speciality. You won’t be penalised for being a IMG

Thank you for this video ! My daugther wants to be an ophtalmologist and wishes to do her studies in uk. We are french, she was said that she has to pass the IELTS and the UKCAT befor applying . I don't understand how medical studies works, what are the différent steps ? And do hospital accept girl with hijab ?

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

great to hear she wants to do medicine. If there are language issues she may be asked to sit the IELTS to prove her English language is adequate. Medical school ranges from 5 to 6 years. A UK entrant will apply for medicine through a website called the UCAS (deadline is early October) - theyre expected to write a personal statement and do entrance exams before being called for an interview . However I don't know how this process differs for international applicants - I'ts best to ask a few universities directly and they can tell you the best route. Regarding Hijabs - there are absolutely no isses with wearing a hijab in medical school, hospitals or anywhere else in the UK

[@abbasouafa9278]

Thank you so much, can you give us more informations about how CAN a specialist doctor (oncologist) who studied outside the UE practice medecine in the UK

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Hi Abbas. As I said I don’t have anymore information that what I provided in the video. However you need to start off by getting your GMC licence before looking into practising medicine in the UK

[@OnderG]

As far as I know, (have researched and asked GMC for my specialist friends, you do not need to take the plab test. Just ielts and apply for equivalence with all the documents they will need to see if you are equally qualified for uk specs of the same specialty. It takes 6-9 months just for the assessment. But as The Junior Doctor said, just start with opening a GMC account and start your GMC registration application. Good luck!

If person is from EU countries, than she\he can right after ending internship in own country apply for the license in GMC , without PLAB exam, and if person isn't from EU than she\he need after internship pass PLAB 1,2 and then can apply for a license?

hello! great video as it was very helpful. However, i am a little confused with PLAB, INTERNSHIP AND THE FOUNDATION YEAR. I'm an international student in Europe and almost about to graduate medical school. 1) I'm aware i would need to take the IELTS exam first but do i need to write the PLAB EXAM before doing my internship as i would love to do my internship and practice in the UK. 2) Are the terms internship and Foundation year the same thing?

[@Drzeezy]

Internship and foundation year are the same thing. You dont need to do internship to do the Plab exam. But have one year of internship elsewhere as it will help you get into fy2 straight away. Theres more info on my channel ! Hope this helps

[@Primusinterparesone]

As at 2017 there was no way to get full registration without going through the foundation programme, has this changed ?

As mentioned in the video if you have a an internship (FY1 equivalent) in the country you qualified from - you can apply for a full licence

[@Primusinterparesone]

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Technically you could go straight into core training however that almost never happens. Often IMG take up a trust grade job and work for a year or so to adapt to the UK system before applying for training

[@Drzeezy]

Actually if you have done one year of internship ! GMC will send you straight into fy2 ! As it's tough to get a position in fy1

Hi Derrick. The process of applying and gaining GMC licence is the same (will likely not require to do a language assessment). Once a full GMC licence is obtained the doctor can do locum shifts. It is best to speak to the GMC directly for the most up to date information

And what is the procedure to get the FY1 scrapped off, so that I can join directly in the FY2 after internship.

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Hi Aditya, if you have an internship technically you can go straight into FY2, however thats a decision the GMA will make you get paid for your foundation years

[@itsme6605]

The Junior Doctor- 1. Do I need to finish my FY2 before applying for a postgraduate course (Eg- Internal Medicine) or can I directly apply for the same after my PLAB 2 results? 2. Also, is it compulsory to work in the UK for a specific period before applying for a postgraduate course. 3. Can I get into FY2 or work as an SHO or GP after PLAB 1 without PLAB 2?

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

1. Not always but you would be expected to work in the NHS for at least 1-2 years to understand how the NHS works. 2. There isn’t a specific time but you are expected to have worked in the NHS before you get into a training programme. 3. You’ll need both parts of PLAB to get a GMC licence. And you can’t work unless you’ve got a licence. You’d be able to work in a hospital but not a GP (you need to be a GP trainee or be a qualified GP to work in a GP practice)

When you enter a speciality it'll be at ST1 level unless you have extensive prior training elsewhere making you a registrar at which point there may be scope to enter at a higher level but less likely.

Hi I am going to year 10 next year ; I want to become a doctor but I am confused about what subjects shall I take . Any suggestions???

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Hi. Often science and mathematics are what’s needed. You can read individual universities admission requirements to see what subjects you should take

[@walkin9745]

hello dr. i wanna ask that for imgs do we need to pay F1 and F2 tuition fees or college fees? if yes how much is it approximately? Thankyou:)

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Hi John. What do you mean by plan 2?

[@wyvilboy]

Plab 2 what are deadlines for oriel application and UKFPO for any FY1 get a post can you apply outside the FY1 I have a friend from Cyprus who said something like this that he is doing FY1 out the program. Can someone applying from Asia with a Uk passport do the same? I did not attend a school in the EU

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

The deadline for the application is around October. However I wouldn’t know if you’d be able to apply. The best place to get the info is from the GMC which I’ve left links for below the video

Ezgi video için çok teşekkürler. Benim ecfmg sertifikam var usmle step1, Step2CK ve CS yi geçtiğim için. Plab ı almam gerekiyor mu? GMC nin sitesinde net bir bilgiye ulaşamadım:/

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

PLAB ve USMLE sinavlari cok farkli. Benim dusuncem PLAB da yapmak zorundasiniz ama 100% emin degilim. GMC de danismanlari arayip sora bilirsiniz

Hello, i am Mod , this is great video and you are very kind to answer all the question here, i have question, i graduated ophthalmology resident in Laos PDR ( South East Asia) how can i work as ophthalmologist in England ? what route would you recommend, thank you every much

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Hi ☺️ the first step would be to get your GMC licence and apply for the ophthalmology training programme. You may want to work as a locus for the first years to adjust to the system and male contacts with people. Ophthalmology training posts are limited on the UK but I’m not 100% of the exact route. It’s best to ask on some of the forums I’ve linked in the video ☺️

How to do general medicine post graduation in uk ? Do i need to write plab as i am an international medical graduate..if i pass plab what all universities i can choose from ?

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

once you get your gmc licence and have the right to practice as a doctor in the UK you can apply for a training programme called IMT which can lead to many other specialties. these training programme are run by the hospital not universities. hope that makes sense

Hello! Thank you for the information! Do you know, how much does the FP cost? For Russian student after 6 years of Medical School?

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

FP does not cost anything. It’s a training programme that pays you a salary for working as a doctor

[@ТатьянаКротова-з1я]

Thank you a lot for the answer and for your videos!) Is it possible to take a FP after 6 years in Medical School in Russia? Without an internship?

[@DrEzgiOzcan]

Like I mentioned in the video if you don’t have an internship you can enter foundation training at FY1 level

[@ТатьянаКротова-з1я]

@@DrEzgiOzcan FY1 level is the first year of foundation program, am I right, and I can start it after PLAB and IELTS?)

[@ashwinaachu7031]
