title: Changes in UK ORL-HNS training scheme: Does the Indian trainee have a place anymore?
abstract: The determination of the UK Government to modernise medical careers, the shortage of training jobs for local medical graduates, the establishment of the Postgraduate Medical Training and Education Board (PMETB) and European Union rules have combined to change the scheme of surgical training in the United Kingdom. In the opinion of the author, the Indian Otorhinolaryngological (ORL) trainee can no longer aspire to reasonable higher training in the UK.
