Doctors - visa regulations

[silverchloride]

Hi, I wanted to get some opinions on how things are these days with doctors who have completed their education from overseas.

I'm aware of the usual Tier 2 regulations and the limit that the government imposes (around 20 thousand workers from outside the EU can come to the UK on Tier 2, etc) but was wondering if doctors have a different category / rules.

Does anyone have any details / insights on how doctors can come to the UK and plus how the situation is in the current environment. I am aware that they need to clear Plab 1 and Plab 2 - what happens after that?


Many thanks like always.
