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.

I have a gap of 4months as I was waiting for elective opportunities in USA as an intern, but couldn't get them due to the pandemic. Now I dont have any documents to show for the same, except for the payment receipt. Will I get GMC registeration?

i have a similar story. gap off upto 4 months post grad. May i ask how did it work out and what did you offer as explanation when asked about your activites dduring that period? any response would be great, thankyouu

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..

I worked as a medical officer for 7 months right after my internship ended but then i resigned from there due to shifting to another city and now I have a practice gap of 2 years because for initial 1.5 years i was studying for USMLE (i have a proof of UWORLD q bank subscription) but i didn't end up taking the exam.and now despite dropping CVs at multiple hospitals i haven't got a job yet in my home country. will it put bad impression to GMC for my registration?

It just comes down to you explaining your situation.

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 :)
