Hello sir /mem what is resident doctor. How we become a resident doctor How we become a senior resident doctor Or it is compulsory to become a resident doctor . If I am pursuing my pg md'ms course then after 3 year it is compulsory to become resident doctor or reside in hospital
Hello
A resident doctor is a medical graduate (MBBS) who is undergoing postgraduate training (MD/MS or DNB) in a hospital .
Here’s a breakdown :
After completing MBBS, doctors must clear the NEET-PG exam to get admission into a PG program (MD/MS/DNB).
Once admitted , they work in a hospital as junior resident doctors while pursuing their specialization.
Senior Resident Doctor
After completing MD/MS (3 years) , a doctor can apply for a senior resident position in government or private hospitals.
Some may also pursue super-specialization (DM/MCh).
Compulsory to become a Resident Doctor
Yes , if you are doing MD/MS , you will be a junior resident during the course.
After completing MD/MS , working as a senior resident is optional but recommended for experience.
PG students have to stay in the hospital
Most medical colleges require PG students to stay on campus or be available for emergency duties .
Residency is an essential part of postgraduate medical training .
Hope this gives you the clarity you need.
