Working as medical specialist in switzerland

Post new topic

Hi,


I have a spanish friend, gynecologist, with a german degree who's looking to move from spain and one of her options was Switzerland. She's been asking around because apparently she needs to have had 3 years of training in switzerland before she can start working there; I'm also very confused as someone who had switzerland as an option for when I graduate from EU medicine as I thought one only needed to validate the degree along with the language.


Is there any way she can skip those 3 years knowing she has probs 2 decades of experience in the specialty? Any insight on the current laws?


Thank you :)

Hello !


I have translated your message into French so that you can post it on the French-speaking part of the Swiss Forum which is much more active regarding medical issues.


Also specify your nationality; as well as the country where you are studying, and your current stage of study/specialization.


About your friend, and yourself too, tell us which Swiss cantons you are interested in, and in which language(s) you would be able to practice.


Bonjour,


J’ai une amie espagnole, gynécologue, avec un diplôme allemand, qui cherche à déménager d’Espagne, et l’une de ses options serait la Suisse. Elle se renseigne car il semble qu’elle ait besoin de trois ans de formation en Suisse avant de pouvoir commencer à y travailler.


Je suis moi-même très interrogatif car j'envisageais la Suisse comme une option pour quand je serai diplômé Médecin en UE:  je pensais qu’il me suffirait de faire reconnaître mon diplôme et mon niveau dans une langue nationale suisse...


Y a-t-il un moyen pour mon amie gynécologue d'échapper à ces trois années sachant qu’elle a deux décennies d’expérience dans la spécialité ?

Pourrais-je avoir un aperçu des lois actuelles en la matière ?


Merci !
