Steven Said:

i am a physiotherapist and i want to become a surgeon,can i?

We Answered:

I have had the experience of meeting many individuals who were doctors and surgeons in India, Bangledesh and other regions who are unable to practice medicine in other Countries such as Canada the USA or Europe because the standards are much higher.

If you are a physiotherapist in INDIA, the chances of you moving to London and becomeing a surgeon right away are nil.
You would likely have to get an undergraduate degree, then go to medical school for 4 years, then probably 8 more years of schooling and training.

Sorry to burst your bubble. Try calling medical schools in London to see what they tell to the requirements are for becoming a surgeon in London.

We Answered:

I wouldn't recommend you to try to UK as I have head that there are alot of dr.s on the waiting list. Plus, nowadays they are giving 1st preference to the nationals and then other nationalities.
I'm not sure specifically about physiotherapists though.

Is £28000/annum (24000 basic + 4000 London living allowance) a good salary for a physiotherapist with 3yrs exp?

We Answered:

1. I know nothing at all about physiotherapy, but it strikes me as being an excessively poor salary for someone with your experience and qualifications, since that would be a very average salary for a secretary or administrator.

2. Yes, the entire salary is taxable. Not sure if your calculations are exactly accurate but it sounds about right.

3. If you're renting a whole flat then no, bills/utilities/council taxes are not included. In a shared flat, it used to be the norm that bills were not included but this is changing and now there are a mix of flats available either with or without bills, so just check individual listings. £600 per month is realistic exclusive of bills in a shared flat, but if you want to be central then perhaps not if you're meaning inclusive. However, I find that many people come to London saying they want to live in a "central" area and then realise that in fact those areas that are central tend to be dingy and run down, and not nearly as nice as some of those that might be a little further out. I'm not sure if you're familiar with London transport "zones" but in Zone 3, you can definitely find a room for £600 inclusive of bills.

EDIT: In response to how much bills cost, you're right it is too difficult to answer as there are too many variables. But to give you an idea, three years ago I lived in a share house where we each paid an extra £50 per month for ALL of the bills. The next year we moved to a better house so the council tax was higher, so I think we paid about £65 per month each. This was living with three or four others. You'd pay more if you were only living with one other person, as the biggest cost is council tax so there would be less people to split it between. Now, many flats do not pay money into a "bills account" as we did and instead just split each bill as it comes in, meaning that costs could be even more variable. But I would say, if you want to live with only one other person then allow £80-90 per month - this estimate is probably a little on the high side but better safe than sorry!
