₦airaland Forum

iiiyyyk:
y not just comment on what u know and stay mute on others.

Many nigerian Drs and cosultant are working in Saudi and UAE earning good money and its tax free.

its just that most jobs are contract, so after a while, they either come back to naija n invest or they move to the west.
google it, u will fine out thausand of Drs and other health professionals from Europe, USA and other parts of the world working in UAE, saudi ....

For Med Drs n other health professionals who want to work in d UAE, u need a UAE sponsor to help u take licensing exam. U can also travel to UAE and take the exams b4 looking 4 job but it will cost will cost more.
Also, u can take the exam outside UAE thrugh their partner pomotric centers just google well. b4 the lost of nairaland data, we had some info about that from a nigerian Dr, who passed through the process. oga... posted it here. that guy oga.... actually had so much info but.....

Best way to go is to start sending applications from nigeria, u may be lucky to get an organisation that will contact u and sponsor u.

tnks a lot for taking time out to reply me in such a detailed manner.but trust me have been doing a lot of research online and it will really b of help if I get more info frm somebody over there who is knowledgeable in d subject matter or practising.also d oga post have been deleted I think cos d only time anybody made mention of similar interest was by a nurse and physiotherapist and d answers were non-committal..plz if u can throw more light on wat u mean by"I will need a UAE sponsor"for d exam,will really appreciate.tnks

Donxavier:
As a medical doctor that is qualified you are probably better off in the western nations. Why would you want to relocate to the middle east?

tnks a lot xavier for your concern,well d arab destination for me is a choice for me now and doesn't necessarily mean its d only option am looking at.tnks

;Well,just went from page 1 to page 307 in just 5days.well y'll can stop clapping for me now .really informative and intruiging thread tho from d initial DIY campaign and straight forward process,to d potential scammers one of which was particularly shocking(oga ooooo)...I can make a super story out of this thread yet!!!anyway really noticed that not even one medical doctor commented on d thread which was quite disappointing abi dem nor dey hustle for that side?have a lovely day nairalanders and let's keep d thread pumping

monchouchou:

There are 4 different licensing bodies in the UAE: DHA (for Dubai), HAAD (for Abu Dhabi and Al Ain), MOH (for the other emirates) and one given by Dubai Health Care City which is a Free zone entity. They all have different requirements and procedures for licensing.

Previously if you had a license from one, you could only practice in the jurisdiction governed by that body, but recently they have been unified. So, even if you have a DHA license you can still practice in Abu Dhabi (subject to meeting some conditions).

Do a search on google for more info on each of them.

[b][/b]tnks a lot mochocho for your kind reply,I went on google but didn't quite get much because d response there was quite vague with regards to foreign trained medical doctors.will still keep researching though and I will appreciate more info from u or other forumites who are knowledgeable about d subject matter

@ sonafagod,research on medical board of trinidad and Tobago,get their website on Google and peruse it,you will get exactly what you want.but if its so complex to you,i will help the much i can.but for now,trinidad and tobago is hard to pass the port of entry because of this ebola virus.They are even planinng to stop their 2015 carnival which the whole world normally attend because of this OGA EBOLA.so gather information first and less wait till January 2015 and see how things will go.for doctors job in other carribean country is not so lucrative like trinidad and tobago,bahamas,suriname and Guadalupe and martinique with Grenada.The only I could enquire about is Suriname because my friend is very close to the wife of ambassador of Suriname to trinidad and tobago,but it will take a little time because Im very busy every day even on sundays.if you come here you will value time so much,because this part of the world,time is money .research on that medical council and I will get back to you on Suriname.

thank u so much frank,I do understand that ebola virus has caused certain limitations,will research into medical board of T and T while also awaiting d outcome of your enquiries into others for me as you stated.thanks once again on your desire to help,hoping to hear from you soon!

Hello great doctors in the house,please am desirous of moving to any of the carribean countries to work.am a post nysc doctor who graduated from AAU.your kind response will be greatly appreciated

frank94:

frank94: thanks bro your highly welcome.its only god we should look up to and try our best to help one another because a tree can not make a forest

meanwhile am still waiting for ur response on wat my chances are in any of d carribean countries since am a 2yr post graduate doctor frm ambrose alli university.

phantom: let it go to the dogs!! I resisted travelling out a decade ago when I qualified and I regret it now.
my friends urged me to come over to T&T after all I had my MBBS from a recognised institution in Nigeria therefore I didn't need to write their licensing exams.
I just needed to pay the $3500 bond,and of I went.
5000-6000 US dollars per month tax free is decent income scalable to 7-8thousand dollars working extra jobs.
thinking back now, I should have gone. would probably be in the US now,qualifying as an "attending".

the path I took was a mistake!

hello phantom,your piece really got me interested.have always had it in mind to travel to d carribean for medical job opportunities.unfortunately am not a graduate from one of d four recognised univ in nigeria(ibadan,enugu,lagos and benin)for T and T jobs,plz are there other opportunities I can explor and d process it will taketnks for ur anticipated cooperation,

Babyblues: It's never too late.My hubby was about to do his Part 1 when I encouraged him to up and leave.Theres no insult I didn't receive,they discouraged him and said all sorts.this was 5 years ago. He's now in his final year of residency training in the uk and when he's done,we may move to Canada or Australia.My hubby's almost 40.
It wasn't an easy transition at all,in the beginning we cried,suffered but once he got on his feet,it's been forward ever.UK is not perfect but at least we have peace of mind.
My sister is doing her step 3 in the US,me I've passed my plab 1 and 2.Time waits for no man.Thank God for my parents who insisted on us leaving Naija.
Good luck to the brave doctors though.
Cheers!

hello,plz can u advive a fellow doctor on d right path to take in terms of residency programm in UK or working as a doctor outside of africa.plz ur kind response asap will b greatly appreciated....

@frank 94,God bless u so much.most of d time I have read ur contributions on travel update,u take painstaking time to help ur fellow man,d way u go about it selflessly amazes me a lot.it is well with u.

This post coudnt have come more timely than this..am a medical doctor,graduated from ambrose alli university college of medicine two years ago and am seriously thinking of relocating to any of d good carribean island for work,d problem is that I keep getting murky and incomplete information about job opportunities there.plz anybody with useful info abut this should plz kindly pass it over,frank and sly ur inputs too will b greatly appreciated!

firedup: Who is the Minister of health--doctor
Who is the minister of state for health--doctor
Who wants to be the next surgeon general--doctor
Who claims to know all in Health Management--doctor

So all this Egomaniacs and Money mongers of a doctor calling our president CLUELESS with bad advisers should swallow their saliva with SHAME.
The doctors want to collapse health sector but GEJ must first collapse all of you cankerworms!
GEJ till 2019....better go and Join TAN now and apply 4 job,,it is not late yet.Jobless fools

[b][/b]another wasted sperm,totally clueless chap.dear Lord plz forgive him cos he doesn't kno wat he is saying

Smh,its all fun to u guys now till u have a relative or loved one infected with d virus,nigerians always finding a way to joke about everything

[b][/b]now johesu will see this now and out of ignorance nor go let doctors hear word again

adeoladrg: You fools also display ignorance and hate towards other health professionals. And until you begin to see healthcare as a teamwork model and stop seeing the hospital as ur palace, there won't be peace.

but am I d reason u were withdrawn from medical schOol?
