In this episode we look at studying medicine at an international university vs a traditional medical school. I'm joined by Dr Josh Ramjist a graduate from St. George's University School of Medicine in Grenada to talk about these differences as well as offer advice to those looking to study or practice medicine abroad.
We discuss:
- Entry criteria.
- Length of course.
- Tuition fees.
- Qualification at the end.
Working in the US
- Career path.
- Specialising.
- Patient journey in US.
- Cost of treatment?.
- What happens if you don’t have insurance?
As well as comparing and contrasting Josh's experience training and working in different countries and the advice he has for prospective medical students.
Thank you for listening!
