@@mohammadsaif001 Hi, one of the reason specialisation is so long in the UK is because there is a service provision element to the training. You work for the NHS while you train. NHS is a free healthcare service in the UK. It is not always a 50/50 split between training and service provision. So maybe that is why it is so long. I would suggest doing GP specialty training. It is 3 years. You will receive a better salary as a GP then a trust grade SHOs.

After IMT and MRCP, apply for higher specialty training in your desired medical specialty eg cardiology, respiratory, acute medicine, neurology, gastroenterology, renal medicine etc. Best to do a non-training FY2 post before entering a training programme.
