Work for British GP in Doha?

Hi!

I am a Britsh GP and considering moving to Doha with my family.

Would it be possible to work as a doctor there, I would be particularly interested in part-time work. Or is part-time working an alien concept in Qatar?

Any advice, particularly from doctors already working there, would be much appreciated.

Thanks
TC

There's no law stating you can't work part-time as a GP but let me put it this way,to the best of my knowledge,you'd be the first!...clinics & hospitals usually hire only full-time GP's...

There is not the possibility of part time work herein Doha unless you arrange that with a specific clinic. The hospitals want only full time employees. I suggest you go to the Supreme Council of Health (google it) website and look up your qualifications. You can get a license here but you need specific paper work that they have listed on the site. We need good doctors here speaking as a nurse!
