  • Following Brexit, doctors may only apply for registration with a licence to practise at the same time. Before applying for GMC registration, however, your primary medical qualification (degree diploma) has to be verified through ECFMG’s EPIC service. Similarly, you may also have your specialist qualification (specialty title) verified in the same way. UKmed covers every stage of the process in one unique all-inclusive service. We can also kick off with the first stage of the process while you are still preparing for your English language certification test. (And we will help estimate how much preparation time it will take to reach the minimum IELTS/OET marks required.) Once you register with the UK's General Medical Council, you then have the right to either keep or give up your licence and stay on the register with/without a licence. You can only avoid EPIC if your medical and/or specialist qualification(s) have already been verified. This may well be the case if you took part in the USMLE's in the past, or if you recently registered in other countries that also require verification.
  • Μετά το Brexit η αρχική εγγραφή στο GMC περιλαμβάνει υποχρεωτικά και πιστοποίηση γλωσσομάθειας.

    Πριν το βήμα της αίτησης στο GMC, πρέπει να επαληθευτεί ο βασικός τίτλος σπουδών (πτυχίο Ιατρικής) μέσω της υπηρεσίας EPIC του ECFMG. Ομοίως, αν διαθέτετε τίτλο ειδικότητα, μπορεί να επαληθευτεί μέσω του ίδιου φορέα. Η UKmed καλύπτει όλα τα στάδια με μια μοναδική ολοκληρωμένη υπηρεσία. Μπορούμε, επίσης, να ξεκινήσουμε με τα πρώτα στάδια όσο εσείς προετοιμάζεστε για την πιστοποίηση Αγγλικών. (Και μπορούμε να σας βοηθήσουμε να εκτιμήσετε πόσο χρόνο θα χρειαστείτε για την πιστοποίηση.) Αφού εγγραφείτε στο βρετανικό General Medical Council, στη συνέχεια έχετε το δικαίωμα να κρατήσετε ή να επιστρέψετε την άδειά σας, παραμένοντας στο μητρώο with ή without a licence to practise. Αν στο παρελθόν περάσατε μέσω EPIC το πτυχίο σας λ.χ. λόγω USMLE ή εγγραφής σε ιατρικό μητρώο χώρας που απαιτεί επαλήθευση, τότε ενδέχεται να μην χρειαστεί να ξανακάνετε την ίδια διαδικασία.
  • Immediately after the NHS or a private employer in the UK offers you a job, and just as you're ready to accept, we can get you started in your chosen role faster, error-free and with a higher salary. If you are in a rush, we can even make you our Top Priority Visa & Hire professional.
  • Following Brexit, your dental degree can still be recognised automatically for registration by the GDC (General Dental Council), as long as it is a Relevant European Diploma. If not, then you should likely follow the ORE route. Registration with the GDC will allow you to practise as an Associate / Employed / Community Dentist in the NHS or privately in:
    • England
    • Scotland
    • Wales
    • Northern Ireland
    • the Channel Islands
    • and the Isle of Man.
    There are lots of UK-based dental practices that are interested in newly qualified or relatively inexperienced Dentists who are just starting out. The GDC requires evidence of your English language skills. For the vast majority of applicants, that means you have to achieve a minimum score in an acceptable English language test before you apply for registration.
  • Μετά το Brexit, το πτυχίο Οδοντιατρικής σας εξακολουθεί να αναγνωρίζεται για την εγγραφή στο GDC (General Dental Council), εφόσον είναι Συναφής Ευρωπαϊκός Τίτλος. Αν δεν είναι, τότε το πιθανότερο είναι ότι θα χρειαστεί να περάσετε τις εξετάσεις ORE για να πετύχετε την εγγραφή σας στο GDC. Η εγγραφή στο GDC θα σας επιτρέψει να εργαστείτε ως συνεργάτης Οδοντίατρος (Associate Dentist), μισθωτός του ιδιωτικού τομέα (employed Dentist), μισθωτός του ίδιου του NHS (Community Dental Service) ή καθαρά ιδιώτης Οδοντίατρος σε μία από τις παρακάτω χώρες/περιοχές του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου
    • Αγγλία
    • Σκοτία
    • Ουαλία
    • Βόρεια Ιρλανδία
    • νησιά της Μάγχης
    • και Isle of Man.
    Υπάρχουν πολλά βρετανικά οδοντιατρεία που ενδιαφέρονται όχι μόνο για πεπειραμένους, αλλά και για νεότερους οδοντιάτρους. Το GDC απαιτεί πρόσφατη πιστοποίηση γλωσσομάθειας. Για τη μεγάλη πλειονότητα αυτό σημαίνει ότι οφείλετε να πετύχετε τους ελάχιστους βαθμούς σε ένα από τα εγκεκριμένα τεστ Αγγλικής γλώσσας πριν υποβάλετε αίτηση εγγραφής στο GDC.
  • If you are a European citizen or any person with EU rights, you can get registration with the Medical Council of Ireland to work or train as a Doctor in Ireland. This is thanks to the Automatic System or the General System of recognition under European Directive 2005/36/EC. Registration in Ireland also includes the right (licence) to practise. Automatic recognition of your medical degree means that you don’t have to pass an exam as a condition for getting registered. It is the route that most European doctors make use of to practise in another member-state of the EU, including Ireland. The key condition for the automatic recognition of your medical degree in Ireland is that it is acceptable under Directive 2005/36/EC. An “acceptable” medical degree:
    • conforms to article 24 of the Directive,
    • or your European degree, combined with your work experience and history of registration in Europe, conform to article 23 paragraph 1 of the Directive.
    Alternatively, your medical degree may be recognised by the Medical Council of Ireland through the General System of the same Directive. Different rules apply here, so contact us if you think that the Automatic System does not apply to you. We have experience using the General System route of recognition, too. Registration is only your first step. Once you are on the Irish register, you are required to register for your annual membership of a Professional Competence Scheme, in order to maintain your registration. Learn more about what this means.

  • Prepare and apply for 12 months of formal pre-specialist training post in Year 2 of the UK’s Foundation Programme, and get moving on the highway to specialist training and research in the NHS, the world’s largest public health service. F2 Standalone applications are submitted in mid-to-late January every year. Your application will be assessed for longlisting. If successful, you will have to well in the SJT (Situational Judgement Test), a clinical & ethics assessment available from Pearson Vue test centres worldwide. Finally, provided that you score highly enough in the SJT, you will be invited to an online interview. Successful interviewees will be offered a post starting in August. F2 posts last 12 months split into three four-month long placements. UKmed fully covers every step of F2 Standalone recruitment apart from teaching you medicine.
  • You are already registered with the GMC (General Medical Council) without a licence to practise. To practise mecicine in the UK, you need a licence. You can apply for it separately with our full support.   Prefer another language? Read about this UKmed service in Greek.  
  • You were registered with the GMC (General Medical Council) in the past, but then lost your registration. You can apply for restoration with our full support. The GMC will most likely restore you to the status you had before erasure. This means that:
    • if you were registered with a licence, you will be restored with a licence.
    • if you were registered without a licence, you will be restored without a licence.
    To practise in the UK, you also need a licence to practise. So, if you never had a licence in the past, then your most important goal is to pass the Academic IELTS or OET exam, one of the two English language certifications accepted by the GMC. Find out the minimum required scores. The GMC could accept alternative proof of English language competence in a very limited number of scenarios. These are highly case-specific, though, and you most likely have to take the Academic IELTS or the OET. Note that it is for the GMC to decide to either restore you or ignore your previous registration history and ask you to register from scratch. In that case, GMC Restoration is not what you need – you need GMC Registration with ECFMG-EPIC by UKmed.
  • UKmed can prepare you for a successful Annual Appraisal. To practise medicine in the UK, you first have to be issued a licence by the GMC (General Medical Council). After that, Appraisal is the requirement that all licensed doctors have their medical practice formally reviewed by an Appraiser annually. To keep your medical licence in the UK, you will have to go through Annual Appraisal approximately once every 12 months. Your Annual Appraisal is part of the GMC's Revalidation framework - one leads to the other. For your Appraisal, you will meet with a qualified and approved Appraiser. If your Appraiser recommends that you should keep your licence, the GMC will most likely uphold that recommendation. It is for the GMC to decide whether you will keep your licence or not. UKmed will support you throughout your Annual Appraisal process, from preparation through to completing the Annual Return. An Annual Return is only necessary outside the NHS, so most Doctors will not need an Annual Return.
