Hello All! I am a UK citizen and have lived in the UK My whole life. I recently graduated as a medical doctor with an MBBS qualification from Plovdiv in Bulgaria and I wanted to ask if anybody could help with how to successfully get clinical attachments.

I completed my medical degree in December 2025 and am currently preparing to begin my medical career in the UK. I am in the process of finalising my GMC registration

I did successfully succeed in gaining a clinical attachment for the whole month of November, however, I have been unlucky in other places. I have applied to maybe 50 hospitals emailed over 300 consultants telling them who I am and attaching my CV.

I wanted to ask you all if you knew any hospitals were taking clinical attachments, what is the best way to succeed in gaining these attachments and finally anything I can do to help my odds in getting one.

I am genuinely happy to move anywhere in the UK for the duration of my clinical attachment and I’m happy to be in any department which can give me NHS exposure. Anywhere in the UK I would happily move to for a month or two.

Thank you for your help!

Hi everyone,

We’re visiting Phuket for a week, arriving on Sunday morning and leaving the following Sunday.

We’ve already booked two day trips through GetYourGuide:
Maya Bay & Phi Phi Islands
James Bond Island

So we’ve got around 3–4 days free and were wondering if anyone has any recommendations for things we shouldn’t miss?
We’re staying at the Phuket Marriott Resort and there’ll be 2 adults, 3 adults aged 18+, and a 6-year-old, so ideally things that everyone can enjoy.

Our budget is pretty flexible, so we’re more interested in great experiences than saving money.

Are there any beaches, restaurants, cafés, markets, viewpoints, shows, islands, or activities you’d definitely recommend? Also, are there any places that are overrated and not really worth the time?
Would love to hear your favourite spots or anything you wish you’d known before visiting.
Thanks!
