So easy a for internist training in UK

Surgical based still need to go thru interview before ST3.
ST 8 finish exit exam only can call consultant. But then only stsrt doing procedures solo that junior surgical trainee do in Malaysia. By the time you finish FRCS its minimum 6 years after mrcs in UK. That too u are not CCST trainee. Not worth it.


My advise is if u go internist pathway better do it rock solid elsewhere and not just be a mrcp online doctor. Its a combination of skills, clinical and procedural alike.
I. E not giving a bombastic farfetched impression for an issue that might arise from a patient.
Giving medications/discharge plans without examing patients.

Or at least, learning is life long. But there are also many who develop ego after passing(i. E view someone as inferior, only wishes to speak to specialists of other departments if its an interdepartmental referral, scolding excessively) . Which does no good for patients.

I am saying we need a more streamlined thorough filter of medical officers obtaining MRCP in Malaysia. Nothing particular against internists.

Afterall they also work for patients good.
