Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if anyone knows how OB/GYN in the UK compares to OB/GYN in the US. I am referring specifically to competitiveness, length of residency, scope of practice, lifestyle and hours, demand, malpractice considerations, etc.

If anyone can shed some light or point me in a direction where I can get more info, I'd really appreciate it!

Don't think it's hugely competitive. As for malpractice stuff, being sued as a doctor in the UK is pretty rare, don't know anyone that has been.
