Gaps before, during, and after your internship is a concern for many, which is why we thought it is important to discuss how you can approach them. Dr. Ibreez Ajaz discusses how these breaks can affect your GMC (General Medical Council) registration, and what may be asked of you if you need to explain your gaps or breaks in clinical practice.

I'm a full-time mum. I've got a very long gap for nearly 10 years. Let's hope for the best.
Good luck!
I know a single mom who had a gap of 10 years and still got an F1 level job. Being a single mom is a valid reason for taking a gap so GMC understands this and will not fault you for that.
U posted this 3 years back..can u please share ur experiance with gmc ....did it u go through with the registration
Thanks Dr. Ibreez and keep up the great work!
You're welcome!
Thank you so much . I am now struggling with break in the internship cause of covid:(
So sorry to hear that! Don't worry- soon everything will return to normal.
In the same boat. I have a 6 month break in my internship. I am wondering what proofs/documents will GMC ask about this?
@@JerrySidhu same here maybe the three of us should discuss how we are going to navigate this rather tricky situation, same boat and all that.
Even I have had a 8 month break in internship due to covid , wondering if that will be an issue
I have 2 months gap in between internship because I was in contact with a patient who later tested positive and I was in quarantine and then Isolation.
At that peak time of covid there was no proper documentation of quarantine and isolation.
What documents should I bring in support of this.
Thank you!. You are so great!
You're welcome!
I have less than 2 years gap so your video was so explanatory. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you Dr.Ibreez..
You're welcome!
Thank you very much dr.
You're welcome!
Thank yu Dr.ibreez 🙏🙏

Thank you so much!

Hello doctor.
I'm a doctor from Sri Lanka and have a 3-year Clinical Gap as I was doing my local border exam to get registered in Sri Lanka as I was graduated from a foreign university from another country. Then I completed PLAB 1 and getting ready for PLAB 2.
So, will there be an issue with my registration with the GMC?
Thank you so much and I'm looking forward for a reply.
Nice. Thank you.
You're welcome 😊
Excellent video
Thank you for saying so!
Thanks a ton❤
You're welcome!
Thank you dr
From where I live..we are in break because of covid19..
😔😔
You're welcome. Take care!
Hello doctor, I am from India. I graduated around 15 yrs back. Initially did clinical jobs at small hospitals, then got married to an army officer who was posted at remote places, so I didnt have much employment opportunity. I consciously took a break of few yrs to raise my daughtr and be with family. Then I started working again but most of the time in non- clinical areas of medicine. I am willing to move to UK now if I can pass PLAB 1 and 2. Would u be kind enough to let me know if this break and non- clinical jobs would be a problem for GMC registration.
I want to start the prep after getting fully informed as I am a mother and would not like to indulge in something thats not going to be fruitfull. Looking forward to your reply.
You guys are doing great job. God bless you👍
You will need to explain these breaks. GMC will ultimately decide further.
Hi, I have worked continuously till my post graduation and then for 1 year after that.....now, I am on a gap since almost 2 years during which I prepared for MRCS exams. How will this affect my application?
Thanks :-)
You're welcome!
So for the 2 years gap that you had, before starting internship in the UK, what did you say to the GMC an an explanation as to what were you doing back in the US ? Mine is not gonna be the same, but as an example it would be a good refrence point.
Thanks for the video !
USMLE steps and doing OSCEs.
@@RoadToUK when u told them u gave step 1,did they ask for evidence?
My question is if GMC refuses the full registration, do they provide a solution to get it ? for eg allow some level of clinical practice in UK( since I m already in UK) so that their criteria can be completed or is the yes and no final and then nothing can be done?
They provide options of what can be done.
Assalam alaikum . After passing my final year MBBS i started my internship very late ( around more than 2 years Late ). But during my internship there is no gap . So does it create any problem in getting GMC registration . ? Plz respond .
Walaikum assalaam. It shouldn't but you will need to explain the gap.
@@RoadToUK I have two gaps between intership one gap is 2 months and other gap is 3 months, as my father is very sick I need to look after them,,, is their any chance that gmc to accept this gap,, reply plz
Thanks for you most precisely specified videos!! Could you please clarify this for me? If we hav gap years between graduation and internship. Is it ok to work for 2 years post internship and then appear for PLAB simultaneously in these 2 years? Will that help during GMC registration or just take PLAB right away after internship? Your advise Would be of great help.
This doubt is as one of the resident Doctors in UK said that internship done years after graduation is not acceptable in UK. Thats y I need a clarification and a second opinion on this
JazakAllah jazakAllah
:)
My mother is a cancer patient and I have had a clinical break as I was attending to her care. I have all the documents and papers regarding her treatment as well. My doubt is will gmc ask evidences for personal reasons?
It's hard to say. They may or may not.
Thanks for the reply!
Hello, I qualify my MBBS with supply. Finished my internship. Then work as MO 1 year and 6 months. Then left my job and study for BCS, Residency exam . More then 5 years I do GP practice in local area with out any job in hospital or clinic. Can I start my journey for plab. My question is , will I get GMC registration ?
Can you please give a talk about the maternity leave in FY2 level.
It highly depends upon the trust and your contract with the trust. Some trusts mandates that you need to work for them at least 3 months to ask for maternity leave others are relaxed.
If you are a BMA member, they can help too.
hi Dr. Ajaz, i would like to ask a question regarding gaps in clinical practice. what can you say or explain for a 2 or more year gap if there was no clinical practice during that time. your response would be really appreciated.
Just explain whatever it was you were doing during that time, even if it was just studying etc.
Thank you. I already have a 6 months Gap during my internship due to COVID. What proofs will I have to give to GMC for this gap?
GMC will inform you of what they want.
Thankyou love from Pakistan
💞
I just needed some help. My plab 2 is in 6 months.
And in the meanwhile I am looking for some job opportunities to enhance my medical profile.
For now I am have the option of doing a clinical job or a non clinical job (telemedicine)
What do you think I should do.
I am really confused and any help would be appreciated.
How about if you have a full registration in your home country but doesn't met the GMC criteria, can it affect your application for provisional licence under UKFP?
No, that is the purpose of provisional registration. If you're not eligible for full GMC registration, you will get provisional registration.
Thank you😊
Dear Doc,Do IMGs from India (myself) need to fulfill the 'breaks in clinical practice' criteria of minimum of 60% work experience since graduation and minimum of 6 months work experience in past 1 year, to get GMC registration, if time since graduation is 3 years?
No. That rule is for British/EU/EEA graduates.
@@RoadToUK But there are 5 case studies mentioned in the GMC website about 'breaks in practice', of which 1 case study is of Dr Patil graduated from India...it says in the end that they do consider whether u have done 60% minimum work experience since graduation and 6 months minimum in past 1 year...if GMC don't take it into consideration for IMGs from India,then y have they mentioned it as a case study...it would be appreciated if u could verify this...thank you in advance
Please read again here who this criteria applies to: www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and-licensing/join-the-register/breaks-in-practice/criteria
Hi Dr.Ibreez, is there any time limit within which I should join any doctor job in the UK after attaining GMC registration. Will it get invalid if i don't join within a specified time ? or is it just that I should get it revalidated every 5 years?
Any answers regarding this?
is medical leave considered as a gap ? like a medical leave of two months after surgery?
Hello doctor
First I want to thank you for the amazing and knowledgeful video
I just want to know your opinion about my situation
I am medical graduate from China but during my internship I came back to India because of the pandemic and waited for so long for China to open there borders but as there was no response from the Chinese government I studied for my Indian license exam after clearing it I joined my remaining internship of 18 weeks and due this reason I have a gap of 20 months , I am worried that after I complete my plab 1 and 2 and later on if GMC dint allow me, I will lose my all hopes so I want you to let me know that is this reason valid to get me GMC regeneration
Thank a lot
It is something you can explain.
Hi brij, So its been an year of you commenting this and I am kind of stuck in the situation like you. What do you advice ? TIA
I have 32 days leave during my internship and today they have asked explanation for that. I told the truth that I was a newly married guy and has gone for a honeymoon trip. Is that OK? I have also provided a document from my college saying that I have done 32days extra later.
It should hopefully not be an issue. GMC will tell you if they need anything further.
Did they accept your reason? Plz reply.
Can you please tell me about the answer of gmc
i have 5 year gap after finishing my house job. after that i cleared my FCPS part 1 exam in my home country. after that i got married and moved to uk with my husband. so FCPS part 1 was not acceptable in uk. from that onwards ,i did nothing for 5 years. recently i cleared my oet exam and preparing for plab exam.
my 1st question is
1)- still can i get gmc registration after passing plab???
and 2nd question
2)- if gmc don't give u registration. then what about your future? means all hard work and money wasted?
please reply my question as soon as possible
Your case would be judged on an individual basis. If your registration isn't accepted, GMC will present the options you have to proceed.
Hey! I just wanted to know how important are research publications to get a job in the UK?
Not very important. You can get a job without them.
@@RoadToUK Thankyou so much!
Hello, I wanted to ask you. If I did 1 clinical year after I graduated then I decided to leave the program in order to study for my PLABs and work as a researcher instead. Would that look bad on my CV? Will it stop me from having a GMC registration? Thank you
No. If there are any gaps, they'd need to be explained.
Hello friends😊 Is a document from hospitals I have worked stating the post and dates is enough for GMC? Or they need more information like number of hours worked per week?
If they require anything like that, they will ask you for it.
What gap did you have? Please detail
Thankyou so much for this information.
I have a question that after completing my internship if I go for a plab 1 and then plab 2 and then gmv registration and if this process takes about 9 to 10 months, during this period i dont do any job , will it be considered a clinical gap? What should i do if I cant prepare for plab during a job?
Yes it will be a gap, but you will have been preparing for exams during this time, so you can provide that as your explanation.
Thankyou so much !
I am working in a clinic after my internship, now preparing for plab. Is this enough to build up a good cv for nhs jobs after plab 2? Or is it mandatory to work in a multi speciality hospital or something?
You don't have to work in a multi-speciality hospital.
Hlo Dr, after completing my HS, i took 6 months duty in a community heath centre and then 6 months in COVID first line treatment centre. And then i had a 4 months of clinical break. Nw i started to do OET this months and looking for the PLAB route... So, can u suggest me which one is better, either i shud study without doing to a clinical jobs or shud i join in any hospital as JR❓️
PLS GIVE ME A REPLY
hello Dr Ibeeez . i have nearly a 3 years gap . now im considering doing an internship (from 2021-2022) and clear my Plabs . Do u think that GMC gonna still ask about the 3years gap prior to the intershnip that im willing to do ? Thanks in advance :)
They may.
Hello doctor, I am a bangladeshi doctor but living in European country. I completed my MBBS around 13 years ago. I have working experience near 8 years in private medical college and hospital in Bangladesh. But last 4 years i am away from all my clinical attachment because it's very difficult to work as a physician in European country because of language.. Now i am willing to move uk. Would you be kind enough to let me know with all my current situation am i eligible to appear any gmc registration exam like plab , ukmla? Your response would be really appreciated. Thanks
@Road to UK I have two gaps between intership one gap is 2 months and other gap is 3 months, as my father is very sick I need to look after them,,, is their any chance that gmc to accept this gap,, reply plz
Salam alaekum sis
I'm sorry, I'm a Nigerian. Studying medicine in Russia. Planning to do plab after my internship in Nigeria. Please would I be allowed to move to the UK with my family, my wife and two children, if I passed the plabs?
Walaikum assalaam. Yes you would. They would be your dependents, as outlined here: roadtouk.com/tier-2-visa-application-for-dependents/
Thank you very much.
Hi,
What about provisional registration? Is the importance of gap practice assessment is the same in this case?
No.
I have finished my Mbbs in 2011 in India I have 7 years experience I came to Uk as a student MSc public health and I have done my masters 2021 could you explain me should I write OET OR IELTS bcoz I have Uk masters my friend told me if you have Uk masters no need to writing OETOR IELTS
Thanks
Hi Dr. Ajaz. First of all i would like to thank you for this helpfull video. Im wondering that if i pass the Plab tests, is my clinical gap still going to be a problem?
No
Hi I am doing post graduate now in China..will that be considered as a gap? awesome video btw
If you are working, it won't be a gap. Regardless, whatever you are doing just needs to be explained.
hello, in my country the internship lasts 3 months(while GMC requirements are at least 12 months internship)I finished my med school in 2017 (internship included) and started working for 2 years in a hospital. right now im studying for PLABs, what can I do in order not to have big gaps and meet the required criteria related to internship from GMC ( any volunteering in a hospital or smth else) ?TIA
If your internship doesn't meet the criteria by GMC, you can look at their post graduate path or do internship in UK.
hello doctor! thank you so much for the video. would be really helpful if i could find out if the break i've taken in my internship to study for plab 1 will be considered significant? it's been almost two months 🥲
Ultimately it would be up to GMC to decide.
I am in a similar situation
Did you find out anything further ?
@@m.noshabzaheer8310no I've not yet started the gmc registration process. Still have to write plab 2. I'll let you know if I get to know anything
Salaam doc.. could u tell me what is the process of validating the medical transcript through EPIC or ECFMG.. Especially if I have multiple transcripts?
Walaikum assalaam. You don't need transcripts verified, just the medical degree.
I took 2.5 years gap studying for the usmles. I found the exams to be tough. Will I get penalized for that? I wanted to apply in this year's match but couldn't due to coronavirus. I am going to start my internship now. Maybe I will lose on both fronts.😣
You'd just need to explain the gap.
For them you will be refused because you didn’t practice medecine even if you provide the best explanation of the world
@@amelmoussaoui9836 Sorry that is not true. Please don't discourage individuals. I had a similar situation as the individual and got registration.
@@RoadToUK Thank you so much. I will give it my best shot.😊
@@hammadzafar8029 hey i am facing the same situation right now....kindly help me out
very informative video. Ma’am I wanted to know if pandemic will be valid reason of intern delay for foreign medical graduates? what are chances of getting accepted in your opinion
Hopefully should be given the universal delay faced by student and doctors alike.
Hello Dr.Ibreez !
Can one do BLS ACLS 2-3 day courses back in their home country; it's Pakistan in my case? Will such courses boost my CV and be acceptable for GMC if i attend them while I'm in my home country?
Thanks in anticipation!
It will need to be certified by ResusUK.
I think if it's over 5 years of a clinical gap you have to go through PLAB, I have over 5 years gap as we moved to Canada, was doing exams here, applied for residency and didn't get in
You need PLAB for GMC registration regardless of gap duration. While there are other ways to get GMC registration outside of PLAB, it is not that you must take PLAB if you have a gap.
Assalamuwalaikum mam.
What if Gmc rejected someone for gap. Wht should he do next after passing plab2 exam.
Hope you will reply...
Walaikum assalam. GMC will tell you your options.
@@RoadToUK is gmc really reject candidate for gap?
Hello, thanks for the video. I have a clinical gap of 2 years after housejob. I am fully registered with gmc and currently in the uk. I spent this time preparing for IELTS, plab exams and passed them in this duration. As i was in the UK all this time, I was not able to work as a doctor without passing these exams. So, will I be able to secure a job with this gap in my career?
Yes. Check out our free course for tips and advice: roadtouk.com/courses/how-to-apply-for-jobs-in-the-nhs/
Hlo Dr Ahmad.... I hav doubt....will we get a visiting VISA to UK for writing PLAB 1....coz i heard, usually they will give visiting visa for PLAB 2.
Are u UK resident❓️. If not,Hw do u reached UK, without IELTS, PLAB..... i mean, hw u get a Visa ❓️
Did you get the job dear? Congratulations in advance if you did.
I have the same concerns. i would love to hear how it turned up for you. :D
Hello ibreez, from where you did your Mbbs?
Please see: ua-cam.com/video/h-yh-7DTH6o/v-deo.html
Hi, I worked as Medical Officer in govt service in indian state. I m preparing for plab. I have worked 10 years. If I produce my experience certificate of job as doctor do they consider my full gmc ragistration?
If you held registration of the area of where you worked for the duration of your experience, you won't need any proof.
Thanks dr
@@RoadToUK thanks for clearing all doubts.can you guide regarding if 4 year gap bw graduation and internship due to family issue and aftr that internship is in 6 month gyne and 6 months paeds.what u recommend.should I proceed with this or take provisional registration.
Hi. I have a gap during internship (6 months surgery - 2 year gap- 6 months medicine). I had to take this gap as my son fell ill and I had to discontinue my internship. In the meantime I took PLAB exams and completed the remaining 6 months of internship after PLAB 2. Is it something you think can be acceptable by GMC?
How did this go for you
Hello Dr,
After completing my internship i did 4 years of junior Gp job in my hometown. However, after that i took a 2 year off due to postgraduate non clinical studies i am taking and ielts preparation.
Now that i have cleared ielts, i am starting my clinical jobs. In your opinion, do my reasons look sufficient?
Only GMC can decide that.
If I've done my pmq in India, will I need my local permanent registration number for GMC registration ????
You can provide it but it is not mandatory.
@@RoadToUK thank you so much
I worked in a hospital for 3 years and have experience certificates from there. But now it's closed. When you said GMC will verify, will they check with the hospital.. ..?
It's closed unfortunately.
It's hard to say.
Can you please explain that if a break of 29 days for PLAB 1 preparations in internship during a rotation of surgery and allied falls under 5 weeks of annual leave plus 20 days?
Or will they ask for an explanation?
And is there a chance of not getting registration due to this gap?
hey! let me know how it's been going for you. i've taken a break from internship for studying too and really nervous about the registration
It's dependent on how it's shown on your internship completion certificate.
Hello Dr. Ajaz. I’ve been working as a doctor for almost 4 years but in non clinical fields such as occupational medicine and aesthetic medicine. Since the pandemic I’m working as a telephone follow-up doctor to COVID-19 patients. Would it still be considered as a gap by the GMC? What do you think?
If they will consider it as such, they may just ask you to complete some forms. Just do as they ask and you should hopefully have no issues.
How occupational health medicine is not a clinical field? It is ST3 specialty under which you specialise after training in Internal Medicine for 2 years or so in the UK. Have you confirmed this information from somewhere or is it your opinion? Thank you.
salam
could u plz tell me that tier 2 visa is hard or not for asian countries like Pakistan Bangladesh and Afghanistan can we be hopeful?
Thanks dr ibreez.
how about gaps during medical schools before graduation ?
It's not a problem
@@RoadToUK even if they are longer like 4 to 5 years after their batch?!.
@@cabdiraxmaan3754 yes. Others with similar situations have gotten registration.
@@RoadToUK thanks doctor. No one discusses about this topic, it is a rare but it happens. Kindly include your videos to spread awarness.
Mam 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 they also see the gap before medical school?? Will I have to explain the gap year before medical school?? Your experienced answer will be appreciated.
It's not a big deal.
i had a long break after graduating of almost 5 years before internship. what should i do ?
Still try and apply for GMC registration.
Hello Dr. Ibreez, I am from Bangladesh .... I have my plab 1 exam on 2nd of nov this year and my internship is supposed to end on 14oct.....if i take a 2 month gap for preparing for plab 1, would that be matter of concern in the long run?
You'd have a reason to explain to GMC so they should hopefully accept it.
Hi and may Allah bless you for this info.
My humble que is, i have a gap of two months in between my internship (may 2019to oct2019) and then (Jan 2020 to june2020).will it be considered a significant gap ?
It will be up to GMC to decide.
Assalamu Alaikum. I have completed internship in may 2014 then worked as a chamber associate with an associate professor. Then took a job on feb. 2015 in a hospital as a medical officer and leave the job in November 2015..since then I have been working in the same hospital till now, but as a locum doctor.I talked with the hospital authority about experience certificate,but they said they will only issue an experience certificate for my permanent Employment period.However, they may issue a letter mentioning that I am their hospital's locum doctor. Will I get the full registration? I am really worried about it..
NB: I chose locum job because I had some other responsibilities to take e.g. supervision of our own multi-storied house construction, Bangladesh civil service exam prep., Fellowship exam prep, looking after my baby etc..
You don't need an experience certificate. You just need to outline your work.
Hi I am in a similar situation
I worked as a locum for few months
What did you mention while filling and did they accept it?
Did gmc ask for any evidence?
Your help is highly appreciated thank you
hi , gmc rejected full registration after plab as I had two months break min my internship and gave me provisional in 2017 . the gap was due to marriage . can I appeal for full
You can. You can also ask them what your options are with provisional registration.
Is observership while preparing for plab is acceptable for gmc??
No reason for it not to be.
Hi i have gap during my postgraduation and internship because i wanted to start my internship in my parent institute and they started internship very late as compared fo other institutes.Also i have a gap during my internship when i switch hospital to a govt setting due to some personal reason for which i do not have any solid reason.I have passed my plab 1.Do you think gmc will accept my house job and should i go for it?
Hey sana. Did you get an answer?
@@ishtiaqahmad2363 no i have not gotten it yet.
@@sanashahid6525 okay. Do let me know plz, I am also very confused about it as I have gaps within my internship too.
Unfortunately only GMC can say if they will accept it or not or if they will need any further evidence from you. Regardless, they will help you in the process and give you the options that will be best for your situation.
@@RoadToUK Thanks! That means a lot. And if , in case, they did not accept our internship, would they offer FY1 position as an alternative to their internship?
Thankyou for the detailed video.How many months gap can we take "after" our internship is completed?
There is no hard and fast rule for that. It depends on what were you doing.
@@RoadToUK oh okay.But if we take 3 -5 months gap for studying only, then?
Can u give better idea regarding how to fill the gap which was used for studying purposes only?
You don't need to fill it. You were studying and can state that.
@@RoadToUK oh ok thankyou. But someone was telling me that a gap of 3-5 months only for studyin for ielts and plab exam can be objectionable while applying for uk (as people in uk give difficult exams alongwith the job) ?
You'll be hard pressed to find anyone who hasn't got some amount of a gap for PLAB and/or IELTS before they get their registration. It's not an issue.
I have been preparing for plab after my internship and if it takes a year to complete plab 1 and plab 2 exams will it affect the registration process as i cannot study along with job . Kindly reply
It shouldn't but you may be asked to explain your timeline.
Hi Dr. Ibreez, I am IMG studying in China as foreigner. I want to ask due to pandemic situation, I cannot start my internship in China. Will it be counted as a gap? can I attempt PLAB1 in this situation?
You don't need internship to take PLAB. GMC may consider it a gap, but obviously it is an unavoidable one that has a clear explanation.
Hi .. i completed my graduation and intership without any gap and did a job as junior doctor for 2 years after that without any gap but now because of some personal reasons i have not being able to work for 1 year and by the time i give my plab exam and apply for registration it would be 2 years . Is that counted as a clinical gap ??
Yes.

After one year I started to work in a private sector. Now I am working as a senior house officer. I wanted to take break for one year due to sub fertility. Will it be affect for gmc registration?
hi ,, i finished my internship and took a break of 1year to study for plab.... will i be affected or rejected by gmc?
It just comes down to you explaining your situation.
I have a gap of 42 days during internship means surgery and allied rotation and medicine and allied rotaion. Does it affect my registration ?
Hey Shaz. Did you get a clear answer on that?
Any gap you have would need to be explained.

Can you please tell if someone has taken more than 5 years for graduation can they ask for the reason or will this kind of gap hinder the gmc process of registration?
Do you mean you took longer to graduate because of gaps during medical college?
@@RoadToUK yes mam exactly
Mam kindly guide about this..
@@MuhammadIbrahim-ip7nq You will need to explain these gaps to GMC if they ask for it
@@RoadToUK OK mam thank u so much
From where I study, medical graduates get employed about 6 to 9 months after graduation (it's the case for everyone), so is that also counted as a break?
and Thank you for the video :)
If you are employed as a doctor, then it is not a break.
Hi first thank you for the lovely video and its really helpful appreciate your input. I have gap around 15 years from clinical field however I worked in healthcare management in health insurance and public health. Do GMC consider work in healthcare management as gap. Thank you
Thanks Dr Ibreez.I have 2 questions.
1) I've worked in a rehab centre runs by a group of non medical persons. Can I provide certificate from them or it should be from a Dr?
2)In Bangladesh GPs don't have any certificates. What about them??
Are you referring to the GEN forms?
@@RoadToUK Yes.
They can sign them.
@@RoadToUK Thanks. Stay blessed.
