Gambia is a beautiful country. It is still one of my dreams to maybe retire there someday having thoroughly enjoyed visiting. Is your salary locked in dollars or dalasi, and do you work for a Govt or private dentistry?

Dalasis. Private practice

You should be able to eat with it. First few days, it will feel awkward but you will get used to it. If there's no pain when chewing. You should be able to eat with your denture

No pain while eating

It actually a front single tooth partial denture
So I don't really chew with it .

But when I chew with my right side tooth it's pretty okay

But chewing with the left side tooth makes the deture dance upand down..

lmao cheesy,. Like I said earlier,. Not everyone is a dumb skull like you.. some of us here are actually first class students with really amazing grades.. btw how about I involve the police in this matter,. And they come pick you up first thing on Monday morning.. remember. I've got your name, address and phone number,. Problem with you is that you mistake expediency for weakness, because let's be clear,. When this is all over, you're gonna wish you hadn't met me.. I promise you, I've done things, that'll make you shudder, you have no idea, what I'm capable of but you're about to find out!!

Do you have surgical skills?
You can definitely send your CV to the private hospitals here. Most of them have websites.

Majorly CS.

How can I get those websites please and what's their pay like?

Thanks.

I grew up in The Gambia between 1998 to 2007
My family relocated back to Nigeria
But now I’m a young man
Thinking about going back to The Gambia

My question is how do I relocate ?
I have my PASSPORT ready
I don’t want to ask my dad lol
I bet he never told his dad when he took the step to migrate there in the first place.

Growing up there was fun lol
Lovely childhood memories
We were always at the beaches every month end.

GAMBIA PEACEFUL COUNTRY


QUOTE ME IF YOU HAVE AN ANSWER TO MY QUESTION.
It’s time to chill out lol.
Thanks for the audience

Your question “how do you relocate?” Is as simple as ABC. Just buy your flight ticket, get enough money in your pocket and off you go wink

Point of correction: There is direct flight to Gambia. Aasky and Airpeace. But airpeace is down now. Gambia is a lovely country to be. No hassles and system failures like Nigeria. I spent close to 20 years in GM. Extremely nice people. Good luck to you OP. Meanwhile pls avoid the beautiful Wollof, Mandinka and Fula girls to avoid the stories that touch!

Okay. CS is good

"Hospitals in Gambia" will bring different options on Google.

Doctors earn from 1k USD to 3k USD.
Specialist earn from 4k USD to 6k USD
All dependent on experience and skills

MRC pays more than others. But it's a research facility

I think Asky is the only airline that flies to Gambia now. So go to their website: flyasky.com and book your ticket and don’t forget to book a hotel too to show at the airport POE.

Quick question dr

Is it necessary to eat with my partial denture or I can get it off then install back when I'm done?....

New with it tho...just trying to learn how to work with it.

Thanks

Bro, you've not responded to my question of whether or not you were the same person as 'BigDawsTv' on YouTube.

No yet, but still planning about it

License registration is imperative.
She can submit her documents to the council before coming. Then an exam date with fees will be communicated to her. Letter of good standing is the most difficult document to get. It's better sorted before she leaves home.

Hope she has post graduation experience? At least 2 years. That's one of the pre-requisite

N.B she can start working immediately as long as council is still regularising her documentation
