Hello, I am a newly graduate General Surgeon with plan on applying for a job in Qatar

Can anyone help me on how to become a Surgical Assistant/Surgical First Assist in Qatar?

Do I need to fulfill the requirements for a General Scope Physician including the Prometrics?

 

 

Thank you in advance for your response

by the way, did the experienced doctors entered as a general scope physician or as a specialist on the QCHP to become a Surgical Assistant? and were they required an exam?

The simple fact is that there are many many many exxperienced doctors / surgeons from developing nations willing to come here and work in junior positions.. so you will have a hard time finding something....

Having said that, there is no harm in trying

Thanks..

But Is the General Surgery Residency Training not yet counted as experience for applying as a Surgical Assist? if I'm correct on my understanding of the QCHP, even a General Scope Physician could be a Surgical Assistant provided they meet the requirements?

Get some experience first and then apply for a job. It is difficult for the freshers to get a job here.
