How to increase your income as a doctor in UK

[@annsusanmathew1993]

Sir, Kudos to your crystal clear explanation and honesty!! I really hope and pray that your channel grows!!

[@naveenmessi2705]

Simple and effective, keep up the good work! I am a doctor myself with other interests in investing and blogging, NHS salary alone doesn’t help enough.

Hello sir. Sir I have a gap of almost 2 years after my internship. Will that be a problem for GMC registration?

[@SumanPaulDoc]

Gap is not a problem.but you should be able to justify the reason for the gap like preparing for exam, childcare etc.

Sir , is it difficult to get higher speciality (like ortho , neuro , surgery ) for an indian candidate ? Is there is any partiality between European citizen vs IMG

Hello sir, while specialist training any hospital provide accommodation like hostel to their trainee and what it cost?!

[@SumanPaulDoc]

No Some hospitals have accommodation on site or near site but it is quite difficult to get a vacancy. Not possible for family. They are not subsidized.

Sir !! After studying in U.K can we come back to India and settle here as consultant in nephrology/cardiology / gastroenterology ???

[@SumanPaulDoc]

Yes, you can

[@bhargavsaid]

You said 6000-8000 per year for locums, did you mean per month?

[@SumanPaulDoc]

Per year

[@samosa007]

U said we can do max 20 hour locum per week . So even if we do 10 hours per week 50 weeks a year Then 500 hours locum . 500h × 50£/ hour = 25k £/ year. 40% flat tax so 15k £ should have been earned through locum per year Is not it? Why its 7k a year?

[@dryaswanthchowdharyraavi4234]

Sir How much hours are allowed per week including basic and locum hours?

[@SumanPaulDoc]

Maximum 20hours locum+ your own contracted hours

[@amulcool7229]

Do doctors earn enough in the uk to support a family of four with a comfortable lifestyle (not luxurious) and can uk doctors afford to go on vacation?? I have read online that uk doctors don't make good money so i am curuious as to what kind of lifestyle a doctor in uk can afford

[@SumanPaulDoc]

It's possible to support a family of 4 but you won't be saving a lot at the end of the month for holidays. Financially it's helpful if both husband and wife are earning members.

[@enscebose8466]

Sir why not in the US market ie nasdaq or snp500. With your income you will surely be able to include that in your portfolio if i am not wrong? Many indians are also venturing into us markets through INDmoney apps or icici bank accounts which charge zero to nominal fees. Some are even purchasing US stocks like FAANG

[@SumanPaulDoc]

I used the term "UK market" for ease of understanding.I invest in global stock markets including USA, Europe, asia.i didn't want to complicate matters for the doctors.
