Hi, I am a recent US medical graduate (allopathic). Shortly after graduation, I moved to London with my husband. I want to pursue residency training in UK. I have no plans to return to US and intend to practice in the UK. Can anyone who has done this... or even knows of someone who has, please help.

Thanks!
