I have a surgery and clinical oncology trainings and practicing oncology in Russia currently. I also passe USMLE Step 1 and 2 (CK+CS), but no Step 3. Do I have any opportunities in Australia or do I have to take AMC1?

Thank You So much for your valuable information

Sir, I am an IMG from India and pursuing MRCS and wanted to know if MRCS is recognised in Australia or not ?

I am start thinking of trying to take between plab and AMC. But I hear that plab will be taken as UKMLA at the early of 2024 which some of my friends said that would be more difficult than plab. And I am afraid that if I start taking plab right now, but if by any chance, I still haven't taken plab 2 till 2024, then I will inevitably meet with ukmla. So I start thinking of taking AMC. Is it worthwhile taking over AMC than plab? As I think I might need more time to take plab and afraid of facing ukmla for the first time. Or should I take plab straightly without considering the latter case? Would you give me a hand, please?

Thank u for such an informative video.

Thanks for this info , but as a doctor I have worked in the uk with GMC registration for a year but in private practice not the NHS , does this make me Eligible to work in Australia?

Thankyou sir keep sharing your experience.

Hello One question Is it possible to acquire speciality training through this pathway because in the UK, GMC registration has more than one path including MRCP,MRCPsych, MRCS…etc which are requirements of speciality training. However, through other ways of registration such as Medical Training Initiative(MTI) you can’t get speciality training! The question is is it same with this pathway in Australia? Thank you

Thank you so much for sharing your valuable experience wich will help the upcoming future Doctors.. What are your insights over img friendly specialities is it just like once you are into the system you can pick up anything as long as you are competent enough with the local fellow doctor? Thank you

No doubt it's hard ,but in his case it was different he had 6-7years of gap as he went for teaching and research jobs ,so he couldn't get a job in Australia, otherwise it doesn't take that much time 🙏

Great video Doc! I was wondering if you could make a video on the pathway to surgical residency in Australia. Thanks!

Hello, great video. If a UK non-specialist doctor on Competency Authority Pathway practices in Australia, what is the access to Medicare rebates? Do non-specialist doctors only have access to certain item numbers?

Hi.. thanks for making this video it was really informative. Can you please tell me how long can it take to enter a residency and how long can residency be? E.g like in the UK the whole process after passing Plab then doing job as a junior doctor and entering and completing a residency takes almost 8 to 9 years. So can we specialize in Australia in less time than that?

Just fantastic! Thank you very much for your valuable information. But I am afraid if this easy entry rule for GMC registered UK doctors to Australia will be the same for next couple of years!

Hey! After completing 1 year as a working doctor in australia through the Competent Authority pathway and obtaining your PR status, does it put you in the obligation to work in an area of need for 10 years or something like that? And could you please also explain in what case an IMG is obligated to work in an area of need.

What are the odds of getting residencies like Plastic surgery-Orthopaedic surgery as an IMG, after the competent pathway?

Hi that’s for the very informative video. Do you get the PR soon after you finish your junior year / internship ? So basically it just takes one year to get the PR?

Thanks doc for clear info:

Hello doctor, i had a question, what if you get GMC registration via MRCP or MRCS route, would i still be able to get to australia through the CAP ?

Great video! Can you please guide me regarding residency/Training process in AU specially surgery & Allied ,how easy or tough is it?

After PLAB, do you have to attend AMC again for medical 'Residency' in the UK to Australia? Pls pls pls anwer about residency

This is an awesome summary

Thank you so much for this video sir:)

Hi, I watched a video of someone in youtube talking about the competent pathway. Is it true that it is not applicable for IMGs? It was stated there that it is only for australian citizens.

Hy Naj .. Sain .. Nice videos. Just 2 Questions, if you may kindly share some guidelines. Q1. How difficult is it to get Medical Internship for an Australian Citizen studying MBBS in Malaysia, since Malaysia do not allow medical students to do internships after finishing MBBS studies and ask them to go back to their home countries to complete their medical internships. Q2. For an Australian Citizen studying MBBS in Malaysia, what would you recommend AMC pathway vs PLAB pathway (I know its possible to get a job after AMC1) but still AMC2 sounds very tough. Kindly advise .. Thanks & great going.
