A few have mentioned just not being able to live in their home country and missing certain aspects of that life, but that is true of any place abroad. Some others have mentioned tax rate, but they also contend that equals out when you consider return and the fact they are not paying separately for health insurance. But we will keep an ear to the ground if there are other things to mention :)

This pay gap also exists at the resident and fellow level - with UK doctors being paid more. Please also remember that US doctors work longer hours with less time off (vacation, sick leave, etc) and have no paid mat/pat leave like the UK. This still continues into when you're an attending. UK doctors can seek private practice and can negotiate their pay within the NHS as they require, and we've never heard of any consultant who was want for pay.

No. You get full GMC registration after completing an acceptable pattern of internship. If you only have internship experience, before you can join a core or specialty training, you must have completed another year of work post internship (this can be in the UK or outside). There is no such thing as a non training GP. As you've said, you can enter GP training, but you need to have the required competencies (CREST) and meet the person specifications.

@@himangshuhazarika3 You don't seem to understand the process. Just because the UK doesn't have an internal medicine consultant doesn't make them less flexible- in fact you just tried to compare and say in the UK it takes 7 years to be an internal medicine consultant and seemed quite happy with a fact that didn't exist. If you want to be a consultant in medicine in the UK, yes, it will be longer than in the US if you compare internal medicine to something the UK has no equivalent of, but you neglect to look at specialization and the fact that IMGs in the UK are not relegated to only pursuing particular specialities (as they are in the US) given their YOG, nationality, or exam scores. Even still, you may argue it takes long for a medicine consultant to specialize in the UK, but the fundamental error in that comparison is that the UK has dual and triple specialization routes within those 4 years that the US doesn't have. So one can argue in that time, a UK consultant is further specialized versus a US attending. Examples include a stroke consultant can be a triple CCT in stroke, geriatric, and general medicine or a respiratory consultant can be a triple CCT in respiratory, intensive care, and general medicine. And at the end of day, since the UK is not prejudiced to the things mentioned above, you will find many IMGs entering shorter specialty training in radiology, psychiatry, etc and even more competitive training routes like orthopedics, ENT, cardio thoracic, and vascular surgery without having to waste precious years struggling to match and not having to pay fees for the match process.

No. You'd need an acceptable pattern of internship to bypass foundation training.

Regardless of the google "average" length of training. Training for most specialties is significantly longer in the UK than the US. Psychiatry for example which I’m really interested in is about 7 years in the UK but 5 with fellowship in the US. It’s a shame cause I’m really in love with the UK

I would really appreciate further info on how to shorten training time? Is higher specialty training necessary?

@RoadToUK

You will always have to start from PGY-1 in the States, but that isn't necessarily the case in the UK. And most specialties? You've just mentioned psychiatry but if you already have experience back home, you can start from higher specialty, which would make your training length at minimum 3 years.

What is salary on not training jobs ?

@RoadToUK

The same as for training. Salary is experience/level dependent, not training non training dependent.

I thought fellowship in the US was optional and not part of their training to become an attending as is the case for HST. If that's the case then I think it's a bit misleading to compare HST in the UK to fellowship in the US as HST is required to become a consultant in the UK whereas fellowship is not required to become an attending in the US. I am aware that fellowship is required for subspecialties of internal medicine (such as cardio, GI, etc.) but for other specialities such EM, GP, DERM, etc. fellowship is not a requirement - so to add these extra years to the total time it takes to become an attending in the US may not be a fair representation. Plus, you didn't add the extra years that many UK doctors take out after HST to do a fellowship which further lengthens training in the UK.

In the UK, you don't have to start at residency or even fellowship- it's possible to 'skip' and directly become a consultant (attending)- which isn't possible in the USA. So HST isn't required and there are routes in the UK that don't even have HST. We've given the durations with residency and fellowship as well as core and HST or run-through, whatever the situation. This information was provided at the end of the video as well as in the link in the description box, which hardly makes it misleading. And any extra super specialized years done are now mostly composited into HST (if they choose to do it), but many don't and they typically are post-CCT (i.e. after becoming a consultant).

Isn't it misleading to say that ST in UK is equivalent to fellowship in US when it clearly isn't, your sub specialising in fellowship; while in the UK ST is not subspeciality, it's the start of your specialization, for uncoupled pathway of course. The years in training are definitely not equal and significantly more for the UK for most specialities.

Misleading how exactly? Specialty training is your subspecialization. An internal medicine trainee in the UK who then pursues an ST in cardiology is the equivalent of an internal medicine resident who then does a fellowship in cardiology. And we've laid out the duration of training in different specialities with the source for both UK and USA- yes, some in UK are longer, but not significantly so, and a good number are of the same duration.

We love our NHS staff, no matter where they are from. We hope that you wish to remain here and make the UK home, hopefully you will soon get paid what you deserve. Thankfully it looks like the Tories will soon be confined to the dustbin of history

So, basically. Uk is easier to move to. Its interesting that you never talk about the saturation in uk since every other guy from south asia has gmc registration.
