- Your specialty is a very important factor to consider if you have plans to move to the UK from India.In this video I have discussed 5 main considerations which you should have to choose your medical specialty. This is applicable to all international medical graduates planning to move to the UK. The main factors are:
1. Passion
2. Early Vs Late Establishment
3. Work-Life Balance
4. Less competitive specialties
5. Country of Work/ Settlement
ONE ADVICE :
NEVER EVER USE YOUR BRAIN WHILE CHOOSING A SPECIALTY, JUST USE YOUR HEART.
Thank u sir for your videos!!
Very inspiring video...
Thank u sir.
Good work sharing your inputs
Thank you sooo much for making these videos . You give quite a realistic view to the nuances of migrating to UK as a doctor. Keep up the good work sir. I'm a final year med student from Nigeria and I hope to move to the UK as soon as possible.
My pleasure 😊.Best wishes for your future
Greetings Dr. Suman ,
Lots of thanks for your highly informative videos & of course for your valuable time making these videos. would you please tell us something about " GUM " ( GENITOURINARY MEDICINE) as a specialility . We know the competetion ratio is very low but what about the future specially regarding availability of job after CCT in GUM ? Why doctors are not interested to study GUM in UK ! Would you please give some advice or make a video about the future of GUM !
Plesae stay safe & all the best wishes .

From Bangladesh.
GUM is a very niche specialty and very few hospitals have service of GUM clinics. Probably that is the reason jobs might be quite limited. They mainly deal with outpatient clinics. Job prospect of Broad specialities are much better than these niche specialties
Sir please make a video on positive & negative aspects of Respiratory medicine.
Will try.
👏🙏🏻👌
Dear sir,
Please tell me is it easy to get a job in uk after pursing MD RADIOTHERAPY from india ? And wht is the pathway for the same ?
And
Whether DNB ( Radiology ) works Equally as MD in UK ?
Thankyou
Best wishes sir,
I am following your videos since beginning.
I want to ask you the prospect of Pulmonologist in UK after clearing MRCP .This query is behalf of my close friend who is DM in pulmo AIIMS delhi and cleared MRCP part 1&2 .
He is married with one kid .
After MRCP, he can apply to suitable jobs as registrar/ clinical fellow.then either complete CCT or CESR to become a consultant.
Greetings Dr. Suman
I have worked in oncology, hematology, bone marrow transplant unit for 9 years as junior doctor in one of private hospitals in India. But unfortunately I didn't do any article writing or research.
1. Is there any advantage of work experience as junior doctor-mbbs
from Indian hospital?
2. Should I apply for oncology speciality training later on or better to change?
3. I think Oncology and hematology are different training posts in uk. Which is better for future aspects?
Thanks and Regards
Your experience is more suited towards haematology.there is no advantage of your Indian experience except it is counted for job experience.both oncology and haematology are very good branches, oncology is a medical specialty so you will need some general medicine experience.there are some really good cancer centers in UK.
@@SumanPaulDoc Thanks a lot 🙏😊
Did you do some post graduate training in oncology or Hematology ?
Sir, kindly make a video on pros and cons of MD Respiratory medicine in India..
Just published
Thank you sir😊😇
Does having a MD dermatology in india in anyway help in getting a derm training post in UK. Should help in a cv right?
It will help your CV and add experience.
hello sir,
Your videos are very helpful.
i am a MBBS graduate from india
intrested in doing internal medicine in UK
my doubt is... will i get equal importance as MD general medicine in India , if i return back in case ..???
thank you in advance sir
Yes, you will
Sir what do u advice me to choose anaesthesia or dgo? I have a future plan of writing UK exams which is more easy to get into UK and which branch earns better of the above two . Pls helo me with your reply
Anaesthesia is better with lots of vacancies. Both branch earns the same.
Thank you sir
Hi Doctor . I am applying for fy2 as I have done mbbs and recently cleared my Plab .
Please tell me
1. How difficult is it to get into pulmonary medicine st4 , after one does his imt from UK . I mean u know in India we have to give neet ss after md . And sometimes it takes 1 , 2 or even 3 years to get into super speciality branch like endo , cardio etc . Is it the same in UK.
2. What is the salary of a pulmonologist who has done his imt and CCT from UK , if he wishes to work in Indian private hospital ( approx salary )
1. The competition is much less in UK as compared to India. You will have an advantage being a UK trainee.
2. I don't know much about this. In simple words, Indian private hospital does not pay a premium for your qualifications. If a quack doctor help them generate more revenue, they will get more salary than the most qualified doctor.
Sir in a video u told that u completed u general medicine training in uk along with ur speciality in pulmonary med….so u can practice as a general med eq in india right? And how u did it can u say? , i ,mean two degrees at a time? Is it possible?
Dual CCT is the usual norm for respiratory medicine.
@@SumanPaulDoc Sir can u make a detailed video about this topic ….and which specialities have /require dual cct? We would benefit a lot…
Hi dr.suman..how about moving uk after dnb superspeciality...if i discontinue dnb ss ..n clear the mrcp and sce..what post will be offered to me ..is it wise to leave DNB ss n move to uk
Your DNB does not count in UK so it doesn't matter if you complete it or not. But I would advise to complete your degree if you are already enrolled in it.
@@SumanPaulDoc thanks
Sir what will the next step after MD respiratory medicine if i want to move to UK

Sir may i know whether pathology is high competitive in uk for those who completed md path from india?
It's not extremely competitive
Very helpful sir. Can u tell me whether getting good job in Saudi Arabia possible after gp training??
Yes, GP jobs are available in all the gulf countries including Saudi.
@@SumanPaulDoc Thank you sir
One more doubt sir.. will family medicine training in uk with British passport fetch jobs with high pay in Saudi??
@@Katheejamd yes it will.family medicine is called GP training in UK
@@SumanPaulDoc thank you once again sir
Sir can I do general medicine for work life balance and further do Cardiology ....?
Yes, you can
@@SumanPaulDoc will I balance my life with these specialities ...not cardiac surgery..but medicine
@@ERBravoSix yes, certainly you can
Sir What about critical care in UK...after MD Anaesthesia from India, what r d prospects in critical care in UK?..How does anybody get into critical care in UK?
You will have to do ACCS training to get into critical care or pass royal college exam to apply for ST3 Anaesthesia.most critical care consultants have anaesthesia background in UK as they do dual CCT in critical care and anesthesia.
@@SumanPaulDoc thank u sir
Sir what about clinical oncology.
Is it a very good specialty with prospects
Yes, really good prospects and training standards
Thanks dear dr.
If a successfully complete gp training in uk…what degree will it be recognized if i return india any case? And how many years it take after fy2 to complete gp training?
GP training is for 3yrs and the qualification is MRCGP. There are no equivalent specialty in India. But they will be able to practice as general practitioners, general medicine or family medicine.
Sir how is demand of such qualification in kolkata? Is it possible to get a 1cr plus job in private hospitals like apollo and do private practice?
@@ipad6491 I doubt Kolkata hospitals will employ GPs. Any GP can earn 1cr plus in UK, Australia,Canada so why would they come to Kolkata to earn money?
@@SumanPaulDoc Sir plz make a detailed video on gp training its pros cons and recognition status outside UK… is it recognised in all commonwealth countries?
Also sir is it possible to directly join ST4 cardiology after doing an internal medicine residency overseas
Yes
Thanks dear Dr. If i get my alternative competence form signed off and have some audit/QI and teaching evidence but however I have no publications, does this serve any chance for me to get an ST4 training post in cardiology?
Appreciate ur kind response
@@rasvindersingh1088 Not always, I have friends who got in cardiology without publications.but it depends on the competition ratio of that year.
Thanks for the response. So without publications and a postgraduate degree it is possible to get a seat in the st4 training job ? Even if no prior non training uk job?
@@rasvindersingh1088 none of these are mandatory requirement for application.It helps you score more marks and beat your competition.ovbiously you will lose out in competitive specialty if you have no PG degree, publications, audit.
Sir ..i am Post MD Internal Medicine trying mrcp and i want to apply fr st4 training post in UK..

Dermatology in UK is quite difficult to get into.but you can enter IMT training in UK and apply for dermatology.if not successful then you have the option of applying for other medical specialties like cardio, gastro etc.

Somewhere in between
