🚨 BREAKING: THE END OF THE PLAB ERA? GMC DROPS A BOMBSHELL ON INTERNATIONAL DOCTORS. 🇬🇧❌
Is the UK pathway officially dead? With these new changes, the PLAB journey is about to become significantly more expensive than the USMLE. If you are an international medical graduate planning to move to the UK, you need to stop scrolling and read this right now.
We just got hold of an exclusive internal email sent directly from the General Medical Council (GMC) to candidates regarding massive, sweeping changes to PLAB 1 starting in 2027. This information isn’t even on social media yet, and it is going to disrupt a lot of career plans.
Look closely at the screenshot I attached to this post.
From 2027, the February PLAB 1 exam will no longer run at any international locations. If you want to sit for that particular exam, you will have to fly directly into the UK or the EU to write it.
On top of that, they are completely removing Dhaka, Alexandria, Accra, and Chennai as PLAB 1 locations for all sittings permanently.
The UK pathway used to be the affordable, accessible dream compared to the heavy financial burden of the USMLE. Not anymore. This single move changes everything for thousands of medics currently studying for the IELTS, OET, or PLAB.
What is your next move now?
Are you still pushing for the UK, or is it time to pivot to the USMLE, Australia, or another pathway entirely?
Drop your thoughts below and let’s talk. 👇
Work within your professional scope and the job descriptions in your employment letter!
Let the Doctor be the doctor
The Nurse, a nurse,
The Pharmacist, a Pharm,
The Physiotherapist, a Physio,
The Lab scientist, one!!!

🚨 UPDATE: The Warri House Officer Has Died.
With a heavy heart, we announce the passing of Dr. Ogbomade Samson Romani, the House Officer at Central Hospital, Warri, who slumped earlier this week and was admitted into the ICU.
He died in the early hours of yesterday.💔
Dr. Samson, as he was fondly called, was described by colleagues as hardworking, respectful, and dedicated to his duty. He was a graduate of Niger Delta University (NDU).
This is not just another obituary.
In February, Dr. Samson was brutally beaten for nearly 20 minutes by hoodlums allegedly arranged by a patient’s relative. He sustained serious facial and abdominal injuries and had struggled with his health ever since.
His attackers were never arrested.
Now he is gone.
Reports indicate he was laid to rest shortly after his passing.
This marks the second doctor from NDU lost this week. It is a double blow for the NDU alumni and the entire medical community at large. 🎓
We again call on the Delta State Government and relevant authorities:
- Why were the February attackers never arrested?
- What protections are in place for healthcare workers?
- How many more young doctors must die before action is taken?
Dr. Ogbomade Samson Romani was beaten while serving the public. He deserved protection. He deserved justice. He deserved to live.
May his soul rest in peace.

@Wizarab10 This is wrong!
If dem ask for financial advice, you're quick to refer them to a tagged expert. Why not extend same here?
The said person should visit the hospital for proper assessment.
Please influence the right health seeking behavior
@Obiridike@viktorbensonyt No way am I implying that, and obviously she hasn't given up yet too. Although, the hypocritical t&c would make it quite difficult but since she deemed it necessary, fine. There's always a carrier for every baggage
Good morning.
I spent a year and a half in a private hospital clerking patients, managing cases, and making critical decisions. I only called the MD when necessary, and in more complex situations, I reviewed with surgeons.
My early months were intense.
Different cases. Different patients.
Just a young me handling 48-hour calls.
I delivered babies.
I resuscitated near-death cases.
I handled pressure from every angle even outside the hospital walls.
Because of how I showed up, patients began to wait for my call shifts before coming in.
And yes, many called me “Doctor.”
At first, I didn’t correct them. I believed the respect came with the title. I feared that revealing I was a nurse would reduce how people perceived me. Even my MD seemed comfortable with it.
But something changed.
I attended a leadership summit, and it reshaped my thinking.
I returned to the hospital, called a meeting, and said it clearly:
“I studied Nursing.”
And if I, as a nurse, can do all this, then we must start valuing Nursing for what it truly is.
Not everyone in scrubs is a nurse.
Titles matter. Training matters. Identity matters.
I encouraged the auxiliaries to pursue proper training or find a better path for themselves and I offered to help.
From that moment, everything shifted.
“Nr Adekunle AA” became more prestigious to me than any other title.
Now, when a patient calls me “Doctor,” I respond:
“I’m Nurse Adekunle. How may I help you?”
Because I’ve learned this:
Living under false pretence doesn’t elevate you it limits your growth.
Be who you are.
Stand in it.
Build from it.
And as for me
I am Nr Adekunle A.A

@SENADEKUNLEAA "Many hospitals and clinics are owned and Managed by nurses.."
You must have rolled in muddy quackery waters long enough for you to have this warped sense of professionalism.
A nurse cannot own and MANAGE a private clinic or hospital with a licensed doctor.

@Nigerian_Doctor@MDCNOfficial I really don't blame him, I blame the MD (who is likely a greedy doctor). It is just pathetic that he's try hard to defend it. It's what the country permits-criminality.
Again, the only place I often see male nurses are govt hospitals, yet many graduate annually.
