    Hello !
    Firstly wanna thankyou for the time and efforts you put in. Im a med student from Ukraine and an Indian Passport holder. Due to COVID clinical rotations have been on & off and since the beginning of ongoing war, We've been working Online. On your Road to UK page, you talk about "Evidence of your clinical rotations completed prior to any pre-graduate internship" My University is recognized under the WDOMS & I wanna start My career with UKFPO, but am unsure if The Uncertainty created because of what's beyond my control would allow me to pursue what I so dearly want to.

    Hello . I am a graduate from China who has completed Plab 2 and now stuck at GMC registration due to NMLE issue. I wanted to know if in case I get provisional GMC registration, can I work any FY 1 post in NHS ( considering I have UK visa) or is it really necessary to wait for UKFP 2024?
    2nd question is, can I give mrcp and apply for full gmc registration?

      My goodness!
      some people are just weird.
      After all these minutes listening to her, you're eyes were only fixated on her lips and then having total deafness to the gems she was offering.. For free!
      You really have to take a good look at yourself and remove the 'tree' in your eyes before offering to remove whatever splint you've insisted on seeing in another person's eye. It's just unbelievable.
