Hi
Can someone help me out here... I'm just wondering how the full lnegth of training compares in the US to here in the UK. So, supposing one gets ontoa residency, does one have to do any further training after that? How much further training (if any) is required for you to reach whatever is the UK equivalent of a consultant in your field?
Also, once you've done your residency in the US, can you come back and practice at a higher level in the UK than you would have been eligible for when you left? (I'm planning on doing my residency in the US right atfer med school in the UK - if I came back, would I have go right back to PRHO year?)
Thanks
Jane
