General surgery , paeds , obgyn. Cardio thoracic and neurosurgery tend to take in few trainees thus ensuring AC spots, but sometimes they urgently need to hire someone which they fill from overseas and end up no AC spots.
Renal sure got spots for AC. No scared, they only scare u do till sian and run off to gp land.
I mean don't u get tired of those hba1c 12 esrf patient who is totally non ahdrerent and yet can't die. Every 5 days fluid overload and come in for diuresis. Scold don't listen, sayang dun care , sometimes u also dunno if there is only air between their ears when u talk to them. U sing to a cow they at least moo back at you.
It takes a special courage to do renal. Heng last time never tio bluff to do it.

Consultant child Psychiatrist
Hi, I wonder how much does a Consultant Psychiatrist(CCT)make in Singapore? What’s the normal working work and is it possible to get a PR? Thanks.

Consultant child psychiatrists are highly in demand.
No doubt can get a AC job and employment pass
PR will need to wait a while. If Indian, due to CECA saga in Singapore, PR will be harder.
If Caucasian might be easier, but waiting time is still about 2-3 years.

If the graduate decides to open their own private practice clinic, is there any point of trying to become a C or SC?

I dont trust the current gs ac. 5 years training including HO. Ie 4 years of operative experience.
They really cannot operate.
I Always see them call senior.
So whether u can go pte at AC depends on how good the program is.
Not advisable for GS. Some medical specs maybe can but in general i dont advise for Surgery.
Better get ur skills up, operate independently.
Rmb in pte u are on ur own.
No senior to help.

For medical registration in Singapore, if the university is not recognised (Europe), but you hold a registrable postgraduate medical qualification recognised by SMC, it is still possible to apply for a job? Singapore doesn't have medical board exams like the USMLE?

As one UK trained GS senior consultant drily comment, ' i start my surgical training at pgy 6 ' and here they are already a AC turning con.
Anyway, even the old style bst and AST trainees don't turn private so soon. Usually about 5 years after c before they go private la.
