About Career 

1. Internist/ Internal Medicine Specialists treat patients who have undifferentiated or multi-system disease processes that single-organ-disease specialists may not be trained to deal with such as dyspnea, weight loss, fatigue, chest pain, confusion or change in conscious state. They attend to ambulatory or hospitalized patients and may as well play a major role in teaching & research.

2. They are dedicated to understanding and managing all aspects of the general health care of adults. They offer preventive care and disease prevention strategies to help patients maintain a healthy lifestyle.

3. They are specialists who are primarily associated with one or more healthcare establishments or a hospital or specialty clinics, and generally do not offer private independent care.

4. Internal Medicine Specialists do much of their work in hospitals since their patients are often seriously ill or require complex investigations and many of them specialize in the sub-specialty of Hospital Medicine. They may often have subspecialty interests concerning clinical conditions affecting particular organs or organ systems.

Some examples of clinical conditions Internists deal with are:

1. carotid artery disease (occurs when fatty deposits clog the blood vessels to your brain & head)

2. coronary artery disease (narrowing or blockage of the heart arteries)

3. hypertension

4. hyperlipidemia (acquired or genetic disorders that result in high levels of lipids)

5. peripheral vascular disease (causes the blood vessels outside of your heart & brain to narrow or spasm)

6. diabetes

7. thyroid & adrenal disorders

8. chronic kidney diseases

Pulmonary or respiratory disease states like

1. Asthma

2. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD)

3. Chronic Bronchitis

4. Emphysema

5. Lung Cancer

6. Cystic Fibrosis/Bronchiectasis

7. Pneumonia

8. Pleural Effusion

General internal medicine professionals are primarily focused on:

1. Comprehensive care for patients with undefined symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, abdominal pain or back pain. Such patients need medical help in diagnosing their illness.

2. They conduct a general examination and orders tests and specialty consultations as needed. This includes preventive care, chronic disease management as well as care for acute medical conditions.

3. Collaboration, which means a patient may be referred to another doctor or a surgeon, including coordinating all tests and consultations

4. Preventive medicine care, such as Pap smears, mammograms, blood pressure screening and cholesterol screening

5. Communication with local doctors about successive therapies after a patient is discharged from hospital, which is especially important if she/he has one or more chronic medical illnesses, such as high blood pressure and diabetes.

Functional Fields of Work

1. Clinical / Diagnostic / Operative Care:

Work involves diagnoses, prognoses (how a disease progresses & assessing that progress) and treatment/therapy provided to patients suffering from clinical conditions affecting particular organs or organ systems including allergies, sinusitis, pharyngitis, arthritis, bone disorders and injuries, ulcers, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, coronary artery disease, congestive heart failure etc. Treatment could be done by surgery or through the administration of internal medicine.

2. Medical Research

1. You can pursue a career as a physician-scientist. Work will be completely laboratory based sometimes involving field collections of biological samples (human/animal).

In the UK, MRCP / MRCS / FRCS is mandatory to practice as a Internist/ Internal Medicine Specialist.

1. You have to qualify graduation from any medical school (in UK or any other country including India), complete MD (if you are studying in India) and obtain your MRCP qualification from any of the Royal Colleges (Edinburgh, Glasgow, London).

2. For Medicine, there are 3 Royal Colleges that grant membership certifications: in Edinburgh, Glasgow and London.

3. MRCP exams are conducted by each college separately. So there are 3 different MRCP exams by 3 different colleges. Each exam has its own format that can be referred to from respective portals of conducting bodies.

4. You can appear for any MRCP exams from India. Exam centers in India include many cities such as New Delhi, Hyderabad, and Chennai etc. The fee for New Delhi is the lowest usually. The Indian locations are detailed on the individual websites of the 3 colleges (the dates are subject to change but the specialties and locations are not)

5. Aiming the UK, it will be most profitable of you also earn registrations with established bodies such as AHCS (The Academy for Healthcare Science), RCCP (The Registration Council for Clinical Physiologists), or HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council).

6. If you are targeting US or Canada, remember, you will have to clear USMLE after you complete an MBBS program in India to be able to directly practice in the US. To study in medical schools in USA or Canada for an MD degree before practicing there, you will have to clear MCAT. Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) is a compulsory test for anyone who plans to get admission in medical schools of USA and Canada. MD degrees are followed by 3 to 7 years of residency. Graduates can practice any specialty. Physicians are fully certified after passing board exams. 152 MD-granting schools in the United States and 17 in Canada.

7. MCAT consists for 4 distinct sections which are individually scored. Each section is allotted either 90 or 95 minutes and tests between 50 and 60 questions. Including breaks, the full examination lasts approximately 7.5 hours.

8. Most MBBS graduates go for further study by passing MCAT, completing 4- year MD in US or Canada and then appearing for USMLE because this way is easier. However, some MBBS graduates avoid this path and directly aim at USMLE from India but cannot succeed as they lack US-based education which is extremely essential in order to pass USMLE.

9. MCAT is administered 25 times in a year. With a pass in MCAT, they will need to complete a medical degree (MD) in the US or Canada which is for 4 years. Then they can appear for USMLE and get a practice license.

10. Remember: after passing USMLE once, you cannot repeat it for attempting a better score. Programs usually eliminate candidates with multiple attempts. For this reason it is essential to do extremely well in the first attempt. Further, your answers will not be evaluated on a population curve basis; you will be marked on the level of difficulty of the items you have attempted during the examination.

11. Graduates from any other stream in India (other than MBBS) are also eligible to practice as a Medical Professional in the US but they have to appear for MCAT with a ‘special permission’ from Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) (before registering for the exam, mail to mcat@aamc.org stating the reasons why you wish to take the exam). If you are specially permitted by AAMC, which is rare, you can then attempt & clear MCAT, then pass 4-year MD, then clear USMLE and then practice in US / Canada.

So, in short

MBBS in India > MCAT > Basic Medical Degree in US / Canada (MD) > USMLE >Practice

Alternatively, a tougher router is,

MBBS in India > USMLE >Practice

For non-medical graduates from India,

Bachelor degree (duration is not a factor) > MCAT with special permission> Basic Medical Degree in US / Canada (MD) > USMLE >Practice
