Great video.. been 6 yrs since i completed MS worked in high volume centre..keen on moving to UK.also got DNB vascular surgery..throw some light on moving now and later after vascular surgery
The procedure for all surgical specialities are same. First step will be to complete MRCS and get GMC registration and then apply for vascular surgery jobs.
Great video to see seniors from Kolkata doing great jobs there and more over helping and inspiring other aspirants. A video on ophthalmologist img in uk would be of great help...if possible. Thanks 🙏
dear dr suman, very nicely presented video. i would like to ask dr krishnendu about the job profile that he got immediately after moving to uk and what are the good centres to join in uk for a fully trained urologist like himself so he gets exposure to most of the advanced procedures in urology. and please make another video on how he cracked the job interview after mrcs
ua-cam.com/video/WK4qevvmhx0/v-deo.html You can search for jobs in NHS jobs website.search for the good hospital in your own specialty. Or read the job description and search about the services available in that hospital
sir , a great overview of how and indian super-specialist can go on practising in uk can you cover a detailed step by step method to apply and train in uk the bits and pieces of what goes into joining and working in uk as a superpecialist trained in india i hope you cover this thanks in advance
Great video. A question, like you said after MS/MCh and clearing MRCS A, B, you enter at ST-3 level. 1. Where do you have to apply for to enter the pathway at ST-3? Which website or application process? 2. Regarding the logbook and journals to be kept during MS, where will one find the format or the outline to keep the journal of your cases?
Hello Suman, I am a non acd junior resident and wants to persue ENT. MTI routes sounds quite appealing. Is it a good idea to move to UK with MTI instead of going via PLAB. Kindly guide on it. Thanks

Hello sir, I completed MS Orthopaedics from a reputed govt college in Delhi in 2020. Currently working as a senior resident. I just have one publication. I am really confused whether I should go for USMLE Or MRCS (UK). Eventually, my goal is to gain good experience from abroad and settle there if the earning and other factors remain stable. At the same time, I don't want to hustle much into the financial expenditure and the preparation part as well, because I have to support my family financially. Please suggest the best way and how to begin at the earliest.
Hello sir , first of all great effort in spending your time to help others. Sir I have finished my MS ortho this July and am planning to appear for MRCS A this January. Sir my doubt is after clearing MRCS A and B the only exams i need to clear to get my gmc registration unlike mrcp which has 3 steps. (Excluding the English standardisation test)
Hi sir ! Thank you for such a great video !! I have finished MS ENT and will be giving MRCS part A in September. It would be great to get your guidance regarding getting a job as an ent surgeon as well as applying for fellowships in ENT which are offered by the RCS. Also after MRCS , do i have to get training in the UK again or i get to apply for a job?
You can apply for jobs after MRCS and GMC registration. Check out the video on NHS jobs on my channel about the procedure of searching and applying for the jobs.
Sir, After i complete my ms gen surg in India and mrcs....is it very hard to get into st3 of general and vascular surgery in the uk...the competition ratio is around 4-5...there are around 123 spots and 500 applications....what wil be the main hindrances ...i saw you mentioning many times that st3 is very difficult..can u plss elaborate
Competition ratio of 4-5 is quite competitive. The main difficulty is that IMGs won't be able to compete with local graduates in the application. They will score less in pre application scoring and commitment to specialty.
It doesn't matter what and how you study. Learn enough to pass your MBBS exams and dedicate 1yr for PG entrance MCQ preparation.once you get into your specialty training, nobody will remember 19 subjects
Thank you so much sir for all the valuable information u share through your videos......sir ,I have a doubt regarding gaps in our clinical practice ....I have completed my medical school and internship without any gap....but after internship while preparing for neet exam I have a gap of about 1 Yr.... does this affect my gmc registration while applying after mrcs
Hi sir, I’m in final year pg in dermatology and wanted to prepare MRCP and work as a dermatologist in UK. Sir do I need to do speciality training in DVL again for 4 years or can I get fellowships in cosmetic dermatology after passing MRCP examination as I have already done dermatology training in india
I have not seen any jobs for cosmetic dermatology in UK.I guess most of these procedures are not funded by NHS so not offered.actually any doctor/ nurse can train here in cosmetic procedures- Botox, fillers etc and work in private clinics to top up income.please try to confirm if these fellowship actually exist or not.
Sir,I have completed my MS ophthalmology from Indian govt college in 2019. Sir, for shifting to uk, can I appear for MRCS ophthalmology to get a residency there. Also, will completing mrcs help in getting residency in other European countries like Netherlands?
Hello sir, it was very breif and informative video. I passed my MBBS exam in 2015 and internship in 2016. Took 2 year drop( did few months non-continuous jon as junior resident job in both the years). After that i did my MS General surgery from 2019-2022. Doing SR job from last 2 years in General Surgery. I preparing for MRCS part A. Sir, as i had 2 years of gap post mbbs (with part time job for few months) and now after MS also, if i clear my both MRCS exam, will i be eligible for ST 3 job in UK after GMC registration or they will consider me overqualified and won't be offering me ST3 job..kindly clear my confusion and guide me how to proceed. Thanks and kind regards

Hello suman sir …….i read many replies of your ….somewhere you mentioned - “if you are a MS passout from india , you have to apply for ST3 , not CT1. Which is extremely difficult “. You mean , getting into a training ST3 post is difficult right ? If that’s so , what are the scopes for a MS passout and how one can improve his CV being MS passout from india? also , i have heard from my peers , in general all the surgical branches are extremely difficult to get into in UK because of competition from UK graduates and recruitment bodies favouring UK passout above IMGs….is there any truth to this?
I don't think there is much scope for career progression in surgical fields in the UK now. It's extremely competitive to enter training so chances are slim as an IMG. Only reasonable option is to work in a non training job, learn some advanced skills and return back to India
@@SumanPaulDoc on the contrary, is getting training job after PLAB or MRCP still easier as it was some years ago? My whole decision of pursuing PLAB is based on finding a training post in short span, my 3 seniors already are stuck without job from 7 months, advising me not to think about plab. Do you have any advice to improve CV for me as an fresh intern in india? ( i hope you make a video dedicated to CV and portfolio)
ua-cam.com/video/CduP10wPAOo/v-deo.html Medicine is an easier option as compared to surgery. However since 2020, the competition has grown exponentially and job saturation is a reality.

Hello sir If a indian doctor with MBBS, MS , MCh urology, clears MRCS and enters UK. Does he have to undergo training, if so how many years, any exam, how many years will it take to become a consultant.
All yours questions have been answered in this video.Indian training is not recognized in UK, so he/she will have to undergo training in UK to become a consultant.7-8 years is the total training time.
1. What is the probability that an Indian mbbs graduate get surgery residency in UK after being an SHO Vs without being an SHO (that is directly after plab & FY2)? 2. What is the probability that an Indian mbbs graduate can get an SHO post & get a good opinion from your seniors there (In UK) so that you can get a surgical residency (in UK)? 3. Is the PLAB route better or MRCS route (after MS in India)better if you are planning to work In India after studying in UK?
1. You don't necessarily need to work in SHO posts to apply for core surgical training. If you can get all the required competencies signed off for your application during FY2, then you might get into training. 2. Surgical residency is competitive but possible to get into if you plan your CV accordingly. Its not your nationality but your portfolio+interview scores that determines your success. 3.If you want to train as a surgeon in UK, PLAB is the preferred option. remember you cannot work as a surgeon for more than 18months to apply for core surgery training. So any form of post graduate training like MS/DNB disqualifies you for CST application.
Hi. Thanks for sharing this information. But in whole video I didn't get that what Dr. Krishnendu was doing in UK i.e. post wise? Was he consultant in urosurgery or was he doing his speciality training right after clearing MRCS part 1&2..? Please clear this question for me. Thank you.
Sir thank you for such great insights.. I am an ophthalmologist with an experience of 9 yrs after ms aged 38 yrs ... how should I proceed.. kindly help.. thank you
Hi sir, thank you for this video, very informative. Myself doing DrNB CTVS direct 6 years course, entering into 3rd year right now. If i want to do non trainee job, which pathway is correct for me, should I give MRCS -> do GMC reg -> f/b FRCS??. And if have cleared my MRCS/FRCS what is the probability of getting fellowships in good centres? And if I get non trainee job what will be the nature of my job as in work wise, hands on and future aspects ?. Kindly do reply, will be very helpful. Thank you sir.
Hi Vishnu, you should do MRCS and then apply for CTVS jobs. Cardiothoracic and vascular are separate specialties in UK so you have to choose your priorities. Non training jobs are exactly like a training job, only you cannot progress to become a consultant.
Hello Sir, durning filling the Mrcs form due to some diversity in degree name, i might end up putting wrong option like, surgery speciality in career grade, and unspecified in training level, as i have dome dnb Neurosurgery, is there going to be issue?
Hello sir, I am a MS general surgery resident in India, entering the final year of my residency. I am inquisitive about this MRCS route and settling outside India post MS, what are the opportunities/route to settle/pursue super speciality training in countries that are in commonwealth, other than the UK
You can apply for jobs in Australia, NZ,Canada after passing respective registration exams. Chances of entering further training are almost negligible.
Sir, I have heard that after mrcp there is lot of competition to get into training pathway of internal medicine in UK . Is this so ??? And if I won't get training job and would like to work in non-training job then is it good to do so becoz i would come back to India or I would work in gulf country after getting some experience in UK whether training or non-training .
Training posts are quite competitive and getting difficult to enter. You can work in non training posts and complete MRCP - this will help to get jobs in gulf. However CCT is the best option.
Sir, after completing MS in india itself, am I eligible to for FRCS. And if, how to apply for FRCS? And moreover, how much time does it take to complete FRCS?
There is an international fellowship examination. www.jscfe.co.uk/content/content.aspx?ID=1 Please be aware that you will not be eligible to practice as a consultant in UK even if you pass this exam.

How long it will take to get a license? Q3. How much it’s cost? Could you please answers my questions and please advise!!
1. She can work as a staff grade/ clinical fellow roles but not become a consultant. 2. Depends on how long she takes to pass the licencing exam. 3. Depends on which route she chooses to get a GMC licence.

Hello sir , first of all the video was very informative, so thankyou sir And can you please tell me that after MS in India and completing MRCS , can we get paid fellowships in minimal access surgery or urology directly in UK and is it recognized in India when we come back
Fellowships are not available in UK like in USA and they are not recognised as formal training. Most fellow posts are non training posts which might offer some specialist experience.so you might get jobs in urology, minimal access surgery but they will not be recognised in India or UK as training.
Hi sir .. Just a query. In case i complete my Superspecialty training from India.Can i directly go for FRCS exam instead of MRCS? And if i do fellowship from UK after MRCS like the doctor in the video has done will it increase my chance and fasten the process of becoming a consultant in UK? Thanks in advance
You can go for FRCS but passing the exam will not make you a consultant. You can choose to apply for CESR while working in UK as a registrar.if successful, this can make you a consultant.
Hi Sir. I know this is out of your field but since you are in UK, I just wanted to take a suggestion from you. Is it worth Going to UK and doing GP training, And then Come back to India with MRCGP degree. Will it help me as a General Practitioner in my home country ? I am also from Kolkata
GP is a very good career option in UK and it is also helpful to move to other countries like gulf, Australia, Canada.it is well paid and requires 3yrs of training.you should definitely explore this if it suits you.
@@SumanPaulDoc Sir how will it help me if I return back to my Home country because I just want to go there, train and come back here. Will it help me in branding?
@@dr.anjanbanerjee you can use MRCGP as foreign degree in India.I have seen someone practice as pulmonologist in Kolkata with MRCGP.To be honest, GP opportunities abroad are lucrative and better than many hospital based specialities.
Sir, what are the odds of landing an ST3 job for someone who's completed his MS (gen surgery) from India? How many years does one have to work in a non training job to land an ST3 in Gen surgery? Do I understand that I should build up CVs while in a non training job before I apply for ST3? (I have no research credentials currently) Thank you in advance.
Check out the competition ratios for ST3 RECRUITMENT ( Google it)to know your odds. You will have to build your CV and apply till you are successful. No one knows how many years will be needed for this.

Sir, I’ve just completed my MS gen surgery and I ve decided to move to the UK for a non training job. Are the IELTS academic exam and the MRCS two parts the only exams that I need to sit before I apply for GMC registration? Or is there something more to the process? Thank you for reading this.
Thank you sir, if not about cosmetology just wanted to know about dermatology ST training, other options to explore in dermatology and Moh’s surgery fellowships sir…
@@pinkypinky5655 dermatology is one of the options after MRCP and internal met training.you will have to enter specialty training and get a CCT to work as a consultant.i will try to make detailed video on this topic.

lets say- i did ms surgery in india, now i did mrcs 1,2 and move to uk. Now- - - i am in ST 3? if yes- it must be in ss directly. right?? please explain if it can be in urology or not. btw:--- if i preferred plab 1/2- i had to do fy2 and ct 1/2/3 and then i would have gotten sx degree and then would have started st 1. i think getting ms sx in india and then moving to uk is better option as it saves my year/2 as well.
1. Your job description will be ST3 based on your previous experience, but you are not in a training programme so not in SS. Of course, you can get into non-training posts in urology after MRCS. 2. You don't need FY2 after PLAB. Most doctors will work in some SHO posts, get their CREST form signed, and then apply for Core surgical training. This will save you more time compared to MS and more options to actually enter training rather than spending years waiting to get into training.
@@SumanPaulDoc so basically u r saying not to do ms surgery in india and follow uk directly to save years. rgt? and i need to give mrcs to become SHO without fy2 right?
informative video sir..i dont have mrcs but completed Mch i wnt to do fellowship in trsnsplant surgery from UK..how could i get into this..if i dont have mrcs will they pay salary for me??
Great video Sir.. God bless you for these priceless efforts Can you clear these doubts for me..?? 1. If we complete MS in India and passed MRCS .. we go to CT1 for 3 years and then before going to ST1 ..is there any exam to choose the speciality like NEET mch exams in India..or you can choose the speciality like giving choice.?? 2. After MS , you need to work around 3 years CT AND 5 years for ST right sir..?? 3. When does this FRCS Come into picture..?? 4. Becoming a consultant in UK , which are the countries where these are valid and we can migrate if we want to without studying further..? 5. After Mch in India also you need to undergo core training and ST training , so a plastic surgeon in India takes total 8 years to become a plastic surgery consultant in UK. Am I right sir.?? 6. Lastly , which are the best surgical specialities that you can opt for a better work life money balance???
1.To clarify this further- If you complete 3 years MS training in India, you will be ineligible for CST application.(18months is the maximum limit of surgical experience).The only option remains is to apply at ST3, which is extremely difficult.The application process is combination of your portfolio/CV review and interview. 2. MS/MCH does not count towards training in UK. So does not matter for your training application.After MS, you may enter ST3 and complete 5-6 years to e become consultant. 3. FRCS is exit exam for ST6-8, at the end of training. 4. CCT is valid in all countries notably Australia, NZ, gulf, singapore(without any further exams)and Europe.Not valid in Canada and USA. 5. Again Mch can only enter at ST3. 6.All specialities are contracted to work 40-48 Hours/week and paid same NHS consultant salary so it does not matter which subject you choose. Breast, plastic surgery, general surgery etc have scope for private work.
@@SumanPaulDoc thannk you sir.. you saved me months of research on this topic.. I have repeatedly asked the same to many.. But no one gave me such a clear answer.. Thanks a lot sir..
Sir, you mentioned after CT1 and CT2 we interview for ST3 and that training goes for about 4-5 years. What about someone who has already completed MCh training in India? Do they also have to go through all these Speciality training years again after taking MRCS or start again as an SHO? Or can they work as a consultant directly? Please kindly clarify. What would be the status/designation for someone who goes to UK after completing both MS and MCh in India?
After Mch, apply for registrar jobs and pick one of the 2 pathways CCT/CESR to become consultant. Both will take 6 years around and during that u need to do the FRCS as well. U can become locum consultant without them, but not right away
Sir I have done my MS ENT from a government collee in Pune.I wanted to do a fellowship in head and neck surgery in UK.How should i plan?What would be the course after MRCS?
Hello sir.. I have finished my MD Internal Medicine and preparing for DM nephrology.. Is it enough to pass MRCP to practice in UK sir to practice Nephrology?
After superspecialisation in India (MCh/DrNB), at which position do we enter into in the UK? Do we have to apply for ST3 and go through the whole process of superspecialisation all over again? Or can we get a job based on our specialty? And how do we earn the FRCS degree? It would be great if you could clear my doubts Sir. Thank you.
you can enter as a registrar after superspecialty training.If you want CCT then you have to apply for training.There is a separate video about FRCS and surgical career.
You may return with few years of UK experience but that won't add much to your CV. You should at least clear FRCS exam or get Indefinite leave to remain before returning.
Sir can you give the information regarding how to proceed after completing Internal medicine pg in India and clearing MRCP both steps.Should we again do speciality training in internal medicine in UK or can we do super speciality training directly
With MD medicine from India and MRCP, you should be able to apply for ST4 specialty training.only you have to get alternative core competencies form signed off.
@@SumanPaulDoc Sir can you elaborate on alternative core competency form.I have listened to almost all videos of yours but didn't come across this form you mentioned. Thank you
@@SumanPaulDoc middle grade means ? Does it mean that a neonatology dm holder her have to work as pediatrician initially? Or can we go directly to neonatology training
You cannot go to training directly because your degree/ training from India is not recognized.neonatology DM are equivalent to MBBS graduate in UK. Mrcpch can get you a registrar job in non training posts.
Sir, I have no gap during my medical school and internship & I'm still continuously working but I have gap of 4.5 yrs before my medical school in India...... Do GMC also see the gap before medical school?? Will I have to explain the gap year before medical school?? Your experienced answer is appreciated.
@@SumanPaulDoc Thank you sir, you have removed a burden from my mind. BTW sir I am also from kolkata. Actually I earlier heard GMC asks you about your gap years in clinical practice and I was just worried to take this path as I have a gap of nearly 5 years before medical school. It's a relief that I won't be denied a GMC registration on basis of gaps before medical school. Love from kolkata sir 🧡 and again Thank you.

Hello sir, I completed MS Orthopaedics from a reputed govt college in Delhi in 2020. Currently working as a senior resident. I just have one publication. I am really confused whether I should go for USMLE Or MRCS (UK). Eventually, my goal is to gain good experience from abroad and settle there if the earning and other factors remain stable. At the same time, I don't want to hustle much into the financial expenditure and the preparation part as well, because I have to support my family financially. Please suggest the best way and how to begin at the earliest.

It would be great to get your guidance regarding getting a job as an ent surgeon as well as applying for fellowships in ENT which are offered by the RCS. Also after MRCS , do i have to get training in the UK again or i get to apply for a job?
You can apply for jobs after MRCS and GMC registration. Check out the video on NHS jobs on my channel about the procedure of searching and applying for the jobs.
Sir I m an ent ms jr in India pls help me out how to move to uk with ms ent from india and initially work n eventually get fellowships
Sir, After i complete my ms gen surg in India and mrcs....is it very hard to get into st3 of general and vascular surgery in the uk...the competition ratio is around 4-5...there are around 123 spots and 500 applications....what wil be the main hindrances ...i saw you mentioning many times that st3 is very difficult..can u plss elaborate
Competition ratio of 4-5 is quite competitive. The main difficulty is that IMGs won't be able to compete with local graduates in the application. They will score less in pre application scoring and commitment to specialty.
Thankyou sir very informative video what i needed
Need guidance
Should i need to wait for the international center to be open or need to schedule my part b exam in uk now
Please suggest
I think it is better to wait as exam in UK will be difficult to pass if you are not working here.
Afte completing DM pediatric gastro from India after MRCPCH can I practice Pediatric gastro there?
Yes, only if you can get a job.
Sir make a video on mbbs students how should they study the 19 subjects standard books or Indian author books and study method etc
It doesn't matter what and how you study. Learn enough to pass your MBBS exams and dedicate 1yr for PG entrance MCQ preparation.once you get into your specialty training, nobody will remember 19 subjects

No, it does affect your GMC registration. I just explained that I was preparing for exam and joined coaching.
Hi sir, I’m in final year pg in dermatology and wanted to prepare MRCP and work as a dermatologist in UK. Sir do I need to do speciality training in DVL again for 4 years or can I get fellowships in cosmetic dermatology after passing MRCP examination as I have already done dermatology training in india
I have not seen any jobs for cosmetic dermatology in UK.I guess most of these procedures are not funded by NHS so not offered.actually any doctor/ nurse can train here in cosmetic procedures- Botox, fillers etc and work in private clinics to top up income.please try to confirm if these fellowship actually exist or not.
Sir,I have completed my MS ophthalmology from Indian govt college in 2019. Sir, for shifting to uk, can I appear for MRCS ophthalmology to get a residency there. Also, will completing mrcs help in getting residency in other European countries like Netherlands?
Ophthalmology does not have MRCS.MRCS is not valid in EU.
Sir will you please make a video on how to prepare mrcs exam
Which book to follow and coaching. And websites for mrcs.
I will try to make video later.for now I have shared a 10% discount code for pastest website in the description section of this video.
Good informative
Hello sir, it was very breif and informative video. I passed my MBBS exam in 2015 and internship in 2016. Took 2 year drop( did few months non-continuous jon as junior resident job in both the years). After that i did my MS General surgery from 2019-2022. Doing SR job from last 2 years in General Surgery. I preparing for MRCS part A. Sir, as i had 2 years of gap post mbbs (with part time job for few months) and now after MS also, if i clear my both MRCS exam, will i be eligible for ST 3 job in UK after GMC registration or they will consider me overqualified and won't be offering me ST3 job..kindly clear my confusion and guide me how to proceed. Thanks and kind regards
You will be eligible for registrar grade jobs (ST3 equivalent).
My daughter has completed her MS (ENT) from Bharti Vidya Peeth Deemed University, a few months back. She wants to study further in ENT - do a fellowship in Skull Base Surgery and settle in UK. Kindly enlighten me the necessary steps / registration / exams she needs to take for this career path
She can take MRCS (ENT) for registration and apply for relevant fellow jobs.
Hello suman sir …….i read many replies of your ….somewhere you mentioned - “if you are a MS passout from india , you have to apply for ST3 , not CT1. Which is extremely difficult “.
You mean , getting into a training ST3 post is difficult right ? If that’s so , what are the scopes for a MS passout and how one can improve his CV being MS passout from india?
also , i have heard from my peers , in general all the surgical branches are extremely difficult to get into in UK because of competition from UK graduates and recruitment bodies favouring UK passout above IMGs….is there any truth to this?
I don't think there is much scope for career progression in surgical fields in the UK now. It's extremely competitive to enter training so chances are slim as an IMG. Only reasonable option is to work in a non training job, learn some advanced skills and return back to India
@@SumanPaulDoc on the contrary, is getting training job after PLAB or MRCP still easier as it was some years ago?
My whole decision of pursuing PLAB is based on finding a training post in short span, my 3 seniors already are stuck without job from 7 months, advising me not to think about plab.
Do you have any advice to improve CV for me as an fresh intern in india? ( i hope you make a video dedicated to CV and portfolio)

Medicine is an easier option as compared to surgery. However since 2020, the competition has grown exponentially and job saturation is a reality.
Sir, I jus finished my MS general surgery and got rank in SS probably will take uro.. Will it be possible to prepare and give MRCS exam during my residency?

Sir how much time does it take for a registrar to reach a consultant post .? Also after completing MRCS, back in India, at which phase of British medical training will the doctor be inducted ?
Depends on the specialty and training duration of that specialty.likely a registrar but there is no guarantee

Hello sir
If a indian doctor with MBBS, MS , MCh urology, clears MRCS and enters UK.
Does he have to undergo training, if so how many years, any exam, how many years will it take to become a consultant.
All yours questions have been answered in this video.Indian training is not recognized in UK, so he/she will have to undergo training in UK to become a consultant.7-8 years is the total training time.
1. What is the probability that an Indian mbbs graduate get surgery residency in UK after being an SHO Vs without being an SHO (that is directly after plab & FY2)?
2. What is the probability that an Indian mbbs graduate can get an SHO post & get a good opinion from your seniors there (In UK) so that you can get a surgical residency (in UK)?
3. Is the PLAB route better or MRCS route (after MS in India)better if you are planning to work In India after studying in UK?
1. You don't necessarily need to work in SHO posts to apply for core surgical training. If you can get all the required competencies signed off for your application during FY2, then you might get into training.
2. Surgical residency is competitive but possible to get into if you plan your CV accordingly. Its not your nationality but your portfolio+interview scores that determines your success.
3.If you want to train as a surgeon in UK, PLAB is the preferred option. remember you cannot work as a surgeon for more than 18months to apply for core surgery training. So any form of post graduate training like MS/DNB disqualifies you for CST application.
After MS or/and Mch.... If we go..then...we have to do training of job? And apart from MRCS any other exams to pass?
MRCS is enough to get GMC registration and start working.
Hi.
Thanks for sharing this information.
But in whole video I didn't get that what Dr. Krishnendu was doing in UK i.e. post wise? Was he consultant in urosurgery or was he doing his speciality training right after clearing MRCS part 1&2..?

And if I get non trainee job what will be the nature of my job as in work wise, hands on and future aspects ?. Kindly do reply, will be very helpful. Thank you sir.
Hi Vishnu, you should do MRCS and then apply for CTVS jobs. Cardiothoracic and vascular are separate specialties in UK so you have to choose your priorities. Non training jobs are exactly like a training job, only you cannot progress to become a consultant.

Hello sir, I am a MS general surgery resident in India, entering the final year of my residency. I am inquisitive about this MRCS route and settling outside India post MS, what are the opportunities/route to settle/pursue super speciality training in countries that are in commonwealth, other than the UK
You can apply for jobs in Australia, NZ,Canada after passing respective registration exams. Chances of entering further training are almost negligible.
Sir, I have heard that after mrcp there is lot of competition to get into training pathway of internal medicine in UK . Is this so ???
And if I won't get training job and would like to work in non-training job then is it good to do so becoz i would come back to India or I would work in gulf country after getting some experience in UK whether training or non-training .
Training posts are quite competitive and getting difficult to enter. You can work in non training posts and complete MRCP - this will help to get jobs in gulf. However CCT is the best option.

Hello sir , first of all the video was very informative, so thankyou sir
And can you please tell me that after MS in India and completing MRCS , can we get paid fellowships in minimal access surgery or urology directly in UK and is it recognized in India when we come back
Fellowships are not available in UK like in USA and they are not recognised as formal training. Most fellow posts are non training posts which might offer some specialist experience.so you might get jobs in urology, minimal access surgery but they will not be recognised in India or UK as training.
@@SumanPaulDoc
You can get paid fellow jobs. These are non training jobs so no recognition in India except just years of experience
Hi sir .. Just a query. In case i complete my Superspecialty training from India.Can i directly go for FRCS exam instead of MRCS? And if i do fellowship from UK after MRCS like the doctor in the video has done will it increase my chance and fasten the process of becoming a consultant in UK? Thanks in advance
You can go for FRCS but passing the exam will not make you a consultant. You can choose to apply for CESR while working in UK as a registrar.if successful, this can make you a consultant.
Thanks sir. So whatever i do i will have to complete 8 years of training in UK before becoming a consultant?

GP is a very good career option in UK and it is also helpful to move to other countries like gulf, Australia, Canada.it is well paid and requires 3yrs of training.you should definitely explore this if it suits you.

lets say- i did ms surgery in india, now i did mrcs 1,2 and move to uk.
Now- - - i am in ST 3? if yes- it must be in ss directly. right?? please explain if it can be in urology or not.
btw:--- if i preferred plab 1/2- i had to do fy2 and ct 1/2/3 and then i would have gotten sx degree and then would have started st 1.
i think getting ms sx in india and then moving to uk is better option as it saves my year/2 as well.
1. Your job description will be ST3 based on your previous experience, but you are not in a training programme so not in SS. Of course, you can get into non-training posts in urology after MRCS.
2. You don't need FY2 after PLAB. Most doctors will work in some SHO posts, get their CREST form signed, and then apply for Core surgical training. This will save you more time compared to MS and more options to actually enter training rather than spending years waiting to get into training.
@@SumanPaulDoc so basically u r saying not to do ms surgery in india and follow uk directly to save years. rgt?

How do you expect to practice in UK without MRCS?You will not get GMC registration.
Great video Sir.. God bless you for these priceless efforts
Can you clear these doubts for me..??
1. If we complete MS in India and passed MRCS .. we go to CT1 for 3 years and then before going to ST1 ..is there any exam to choose the speciality like NEET mch exams in India..or you can choose the speciality like giving choice.??
2. After MS , you need to work around 3 years CT AND 5 years for ST right sir..??
3. When does this FRCS Come into picture..??
4. Becoming a consultant in UK , which are the countries where these are valid and we can migrate if we want to without studying further..?
5. After Mch in India also you need to undergo core training and ST training , so a plastic surgeon in India takes total 8 years to become a plastic surgery consultant in UK. Am I right sir.??
6. Lastly , which are the best surgical specialities that you can opt for a better work life money balance???
1.To clarify this further- If you complete 3 years MS training in India, you will be ineligible for CST application.(18months is the maximum limit of surgical experience).The only option remains is to apply at ST3, which is extremely difficult.The application process is combination of your portfolio/CV review and interview.
2. MS/MCH does not count towards training in UK. So does not matter for your training application.After MS, you may enter ST3 and complete 5-6 years to e become consultant.
3. FRCS is exit exam for ST6-8, at the end of training.
4. CCT is valid in all countries notably Australia, NZ, gulf, singapore(without any further exams)and Europe.Not valid in Canada and USA.
5. Again Mch can only enter at ST3.
6.All specialities are contracted to work 40-48 Hours/week and paid same NHS consultant salary so it does not matter which subject you choose. Breast, plastic surgery, general surgery etc have scope for private work.

Sir, you mentioned after CT1 and CT2 we interview for ST3 and that training goes for about 4-5 years. What about someone who has already completed MCh training in India? Do they also have to go through all these Speciality training years again after taking MRCS or start again as an SHO? Or can they work as a consultant directly? Please kindly clarify. What would be the status/designation for someone who goes to UK after completing both MS and MCh in India?
You cannot become a consultant without CCT or CESR. Most post Mch doctor start as registrar
How to get registrarship??
After Mch, apply for registrar jobs and pick one of the 2 pathways CCT/CESR to become consultant. Both will take 6 years around and during that u need to do the FRCS as well. U can become locum consultant without them, but not right away

@@SumanPaulDoc Sir can you elaborate on alternative core competency form.I have listened to almost all videos of yours but didn't come across this form you mentioned. Thank you
Hi, I have not done a detailed video on this.Surely will do in near future.this is a very important step to get into training posts.
@@SumanPaulDoc ok sir thank you.waiting for your video
I have completed my Neurosurgery.
Is MRCS mandatory or can i apply for FRCS directly .
You cant apply for FRCS without UK experience. FRCS International is allowed
@@SumanPaulDoc so basically clear MRCS , work in UK and simultaneously apply for FRCS there
What is this CESR pathway
Hi sir, if someone has completed superspeciality, can he/she work as superspecialist or do we have to go all the way from ct1
They can work in the same specialty as middle grade doctor
@@SumanPaulDoc middle grade means ? Does it mean that a neonatology dm holder her have to work as pediatrician initially? Or can we go directly to neonatology training
You cannot go to training directly because your degree/ training from India is not recognized.neonatology DM are equivalent to MBBS graduate in UK. Mrcpch can get you a registrar job in non training posts.
Sir, I have no gap during my medical school and internship & I'm still continuously working but I have gap of 4.5 yrs before my medical school in India...... Do GMC also see the gap before medical school?? Will I have to explain the gap year before medical school?? Your experienced answer is appreciated.
No issue with gaps before MBBS.dont worry.
@@SumanPaulDoc Thank you sir, you have removed a burden from my mind. BTW sir I am also from kolkata. Actually I earlier heard GMC asks you about your gap years in clinical practice and I was just worried to take this path as I have a gap of nearly 5 years before medical school. It's a relief that I won't be denied a GMC registration on basis of gaps before medical school. Love from kolkata sir 🧡 and again Thank you.
