This information is quite accurate with only a few corrections. It is not necessary to do several years as an unaccredited registrar to get onto competitive surgical specialities in Australia although you are indeed correct in saying that a significant proportion of people do end up doing unaccredited jobs for a few years before finally getting onto the program. It is possible to apply in PGY2 and commence surgical training in PGY3 (that's what I did for ENT). Secondly, a fellowship year is where you usually travel internationally (USA /UK / Canada are the most popular destinations) or interstate (although some people with families and who are unable to travel occasionally do their fellowship locally but at a different institution) and do SUBSPECIALITY training in a particular area of interest within your surgical field. People often go for 1-2 years. It's not actually a year where you build up your patient base because more often than not you are abroad or interstate. It is a year where you acquire very focused surgical skills in your area of interest (I did a Rhinology /Skull Base fellowship and also a separate Facial Plastics fellowship). Most people do not go straight from registrar to fellow. Once you pass your FRACS exam and complete your final rotation you are a consultant. Some people never do fellowships and become a "generalist". E.g. General ENT surgeon. Those that do go on fellowships usually have a 6 month gap (at least) where they work as a locum consultant (and try to save money) before going abroad on fellowship. This is because most US and UK fellowships start in September /October whereas we graduate from training in Australia end of January.

Wow that's amazing. Considering the average time that people take to get into ENT is PGY7, you must have been a superstar. Would you happen to have any tips for surgical aspirees? With CV inflation ever growing, I imagine the average time to get into any surgical specialty is only going to keep going up

@drsly Just found the video and it was such an informative video, especially for an img like me trying to get into australia( to know how it works for the australians normally). Thank you for this. @k9tran: I have query for you regarding your speciality. ENT is my dream branch, and i know getting into it especially being an img from india is super tough. Could you please provide some insights on how to achieve it? Is it possible? I have cleared my Amc 1 ( standard pathway) , and will be moving to australia soon. Any information would be really appreciated. Thanks in advance

You can apply as many times as you like and to multiple specialities at the same time but you can only apply for selection once a year. I know someone who successfully got onto ENT surgical training program on her 11th attempt. However surgical specialities are the most competitive and her case was an extreme example. In most cases people have a plan B and after a few attempts may choose to apply to another training program that is less competitive.

I really wish medical education and medicine wasn't so time consuming I would think it would take about 4 years to see nearly every case within a particular specialisation I could be wrong, this idea of drawing something out for just for the sake of it seems futile and unsustainable for those who work in the profession.

Hey Dr Syl, I have gotten a medicine offer in the UK, but I really want to work in Australia. However, I am not going to reject that offer now but would like to come to Australia at "the choice!" stage (after doing my FY2 training/ resident year). I am a little confused as to how I can do this (btw I am an international student in the UK too).

Is the length of time as an unaccredited registrar affected mainly by popularity/competition of the speciality. Is this also affected by grades and scores? I’m currently doing my undergrad in Pharmacy, hoping to become an anaesthetist after med school. Thanks!

Yea exactly it’s all about competition. Sounds like you’ll have a great basis for specialising in anaesthetics. But it is definitely considered a competitive speciality in australia

I saw the Dr hasn't responded yet so I thought id tell you what I know (i'm a final year medical student). Anaesthesia is very competitive not as competitive as surgery but still very competitive. I dont know the ratios but as an IMG you would want to start working as a doctor in Australia as soon as you can (for example as an RMO), that way you can start building references and working on publications, teaching, presentations ect to make you CV more competitive. The websites of the colleges will have information on what is required to apply and selection criteria (eg CV scoring).

Do Doctors still only get 1 x week of “patient care” and no nutritional training? Is it still heavily focused on big pharma, more so than assisting the body to heal? Since Covid, all working doctors have had to give up their ETHICS as well. or just ignore the science. That must be a very heavy burden to carry day after day. There is a BETTER OPTION which I do hope you will have the COURAGE to take young man. You can be the kind of doctor people ‘pay well’, or you can be a ‘kind’ doctor of ‘well people’. You will be asked to make a choice and when you do, please consider. Your patient is always your highest priority then Do NO HARM. ALL DEGREES /DIPLOMAS and qualifications are the start of learning. I wish you a life you earn and deserve
