Burst your bubble.
They only want drs from
1) UK
2) Canada
3) USA
4) NZ
5) Ireland
Singapore cannot. In the early days SG GPs could take the FRACGP or MRCGP as part of their training. But later MOH found too many SG GPs migrating to Australia to work because Oz recognizes those qualifications as equivalent to their own.
This is why Singapore GPs and FMs DO NOT TAKE ANY foreign exams. The Singapore MMed Fam Med is what they take. And MOH refused to work with the Oz and UK Colleges to have reciprocity for the qualifications. So thank MOH for effectively restricting all Singapore FMs to only being able to work in Singapore. |
Dun anyhow la.
Firstly the competent authority pathway is to recognise equivalent internship experience for general registration. Singapore was actually recognised till
moh ask them not to recognise it.
You can still go there to work with limited registration upon doing the AMC exams and upon completing an internship equivalent of some surgical, medial and a&e rotation, gain full registration.
A bit more hoops to jump but highly doable.
Also, not
moh refuse to work. It's racgp gradually restricting their recognition. A m.med fm done before 2010 was fully transferable to a a fracg without further assessment. Gradually as they have more and more local gp, the m.med was accorded as partially equivalent and u need to pass the local exam. Now I believe the fcfp is still transferable ( might be wrong) to Australia. It is definitely transferable to New Zealand though.
