Young Family Doctor / work in Canada

[Young Doctor]

Hi,
I'm a 28 year old family doctor who wants to come to work to Canada. I have relatives in Canada and can settle in any big city around the country. Have a very good command of English and would like to know if I have opportunity to work in Canada as a Doctor and even study to have my speciality. i'm single.

Thank you.

You'll need to research what it will take to work as a foreign trained doctor in Canada. The short answer is no - you will not be able to work as a doctor in Canada immediately. In order to work as a doctor here, you will have to go through a re-certification process which typically takes several years.

And to re-certify you will have to spend lots of money. And while being a doctor you will be required to pass tests and exams to continously update yourself
