Go for Oxford trust if u are so concerned about layman prestige

when i return to sg people will care + easier to make private practice connections in london

Yeah look at those Indian docs at NUH many of them from no name schools and did their training in small uk hospitals. But still hired because of their years of experience.

How many years of experience do they have? And what specialties are they in? Even with UK training, it is harder for foreigners to get a consultant job. This is in line with government's policy

I am not sure if the public really care...

Guys, between singhealth and NUHS, which is a better cluster to work at

yea nowadays harder to get job as foreigner the poster is talking about previously. Don’t quote me on this but I think nowadays must either be locally trained singaporean or foreign trained singaporean to work as a consultant or must be really exceptional foreigner with special skill set

any singaporean students consider studying in canada? There are 4 year accredited undergrad programs like mcgill and u can do residency in the US after. What am i missing?
