title: A mirror or a window? The Irish Registrar Exchange Program.
abstract: In mid 2007 I had the opportunity to take part in a registrar exchange program established between my current Regional Training Provider (getGP) and the Donegal Specialist Training Program in General Practice in Ireland. It seemed too good a chance to pass up; a 3 month work placement in a small town with accommodation and a car provided, and without much of the tedious paperwork that working overseas often seems to bestow. There was that, and the promise of rolling green fields, the famed Irish hospitality and a smacking good pint of Guinness.
