It is my intention for sure. Moreover, I would like to learn Arabic though I think it will be very tough

Thank you again for your responses.

I do not know much about immigration laws and the sort. But, once you decide to come I would recommend to read about Islam and Qatari culture so you would know more about the people and why some things are the way they are.

There are some cultural centres that you can go to once you are here.

What is IMG? We understood it is international medical graduate (2000 would mean year of graduation?) Or you just chose the nick.

Hi,

Thank you for your quick responses. Sorry if the question seemed stupid but we have no idea about the situation there and we are trying to know the important things before taking a decision.

Of course she has the proper qualification, International PhD, Boarded,....

If anyone knows the local requirements, like exams or something similar, she has to fulfill and could drop me a mail I will appreciate it.

Thank you again.

Of course there is restriction if your wife does not have the requisite qualifications. Other than that, she can work in any specialty if she fulfills the criteria. In fact, the only two people I know of in MF surgery are both women.

I don't think there's any restriction.

All the best!
