Working abroad shouldn't mean wrestling with UK systems at the end of a long clinic. A dedicated team that knows UK appraisal organises your evidence, keeps your portfolio up to date, arranges your appraisal at a time that suits you and looks after the deadlines that follow. You stay in control of what matters; we take care of the rest.
We're also honest about your options. For some doctors practising wholly overseas, the right answer is to keep registration without a licence, or to use the GMC's annual return route. We'll explain the choices plainly before you commit to anything.
Calls and appraisal slots arranged around your working day, including early, evening and weekend UK times.
Your appraisal summary and personal development plan (PDP) returned within five UK working days, or two with Priority.
A named concierge for everything, by WhatsApp or email. Fixed fees agreed upfront, with no hidden extras.

About the clinic and our Medical DirectorCommon questions
Licences, connections, reflections and time zones explained.
All FAQsOften not. The GMC says that if you aren't working as a doctor in the UK, it's unlikely you need your licence, though you can stay on the register. Maintaining a licence based wholly or mainly on overseas practice is only possible in exceptional circumstances. We'll talk through your situation on the discovery call.
In Appraisal, Handled and Revalidation, Handled, yes: your whole-practice appraisal is carried out by one of our approved appraisers, who meets the GMC's criteria. Appraisal Ready is for doctors whose appraisal is already arranged by their designated body or appraiser, so it covers preparation only.
Nobody can honestly sell a connection: it depends on your circumstances and is decided by the designated body and its Responsible Officer. Introduction to a suitable person or designated body is subject to eligibility and partner confirmation. We will confirm availability and the services included in writing before you commit to payment. Eligibility, connection and revalidation decisions rest with the designated body's Responsible Officer and the GMC. If a connection isn't available, we support you on the GMC's annual return route.
No. Your reflections are always your own. If you'd rather talk than type, send a voice note and we'll turn it into a written reflection in your own words and enter it into your portfolio. We never write reflections for you or add our own content.
Our own service. Each package has a written guarantee: Ready, or we put it right; Completed, or your money back; and Year-round support. Every package can also be cancelled within 14 days of booking, before work starts, for a full refund. We never guarantee decisions made by an appraiser, a Responsible Officer or the GMC. See the guarantees and conditions.
As little as we can make it. Your part is a short discovery call, a preparation consultation, your appraisal itself, and sending evidence by WhatsApp whenever it suits you. We do the filing, organising, reminders and paperwork in between.
Every call is booked in your own time zone, and appraisal slots include early, evening and weekend UK times. Concierge reply times are measured in UK business hours: 9am to 6pm UK time, Monday to Friday, excluding UK bank holidays.
Before you book
A quick way to check whether the clinic is a good fit before you book.
When you book, we'll ask a few short questions so your call can be tailored to you:
Please don't include any patient information.
It starts with a free 20-minute video call. Tell us where you practise and when your appraisal is due; we'll explain your GMC route in plain English and recommend the simplest support that fits. From there, we do the organising.
