    I am a medical student and I like to travel and I see you like to travel too. Not sure if this is why you went to Australia to work as a doctor but in the UK/NHS, do you not have time off to travel as a doctor or does Australia give you more time off?

    Can you do locums if you have that 10 year moratorium? Should you do locums in DWS or DPA areas only ?
    Please explain how it works

    Hey! Thanks for this informative video. Wanted to ask, how does it bode with you working in different hospitals and not being used to the systems? Do you get some time to adapt and get your log ins sorted? And do different areas in Australia have different guidelines like in the UK?

    Hi! I have been enjoying your videos. I am a mature student starting medicine next year on a 5 year programme. I really want to end up moving to Australia permanently but I don't know how feasible this would be since by the time I go after F2 I will be 37 🥺. I have tried researching but I cant find anyone with personal experience of this. Can you do a video on how to move to Australia to complete GP speciality training (if this is even possible) as well as hoping to get permanent residency. Hopefully, starting this process at 37 wouldn't be too late for me. I am also just about to have my first baby, which is also making me re-think a career as a doctor and work life balance, which I never thought would happen! But I can't think of an alternative career since I have wanted this for so long. I have a biomed degree but not sure if that's helpful with careers I would enjoy and able to move to AUS with.

      If you do the PLAB and have full GMC registration, you can apply to Aus via the competent authority pathway. Hope this helps!
      There's also a specialist pathway which may take into account your years in training, but note that if you become a consultant, there's a 10 year moratorium where you have to work in rural areas (only for certain specialties and even then I believe public hospitals are exempt from this, especially for specialty training, hence the high number of Brits in urban hospitals).

      Not sure if the poster above works in the NHS...
      The pay for junior doctors in the UK is HORRIBLE, and there's a high workload with barely any training opportunities (it's difficulty for FYs and even IMT1 and 2s to learn how to do an LP, for instance... mostly because PAs and ACP/ANPs get preference for learning procedures). A lot of the work is service provision (eg discharge letters, and scribing the ward round notes). The NHS is broken and there's a high degree of scope creep from "noctors".
      As for mainland Europe, many southern european nations also have low pay and poor staffing levels...

    Hello Surina, I really appreciate your work. The Content is super amazing and very informative. However, you seem to be inconsistent in the content post and Video editing. I know you're swamped with work and have busy days. So for these reasons, I want to be part of this journey and would like to assist you in all aspects of social media growth from editing to creativity. My experience will surely save days-hours of time and effort. Please let me know when you are available to discuss this.
