Specialty pages
NHS Medical Careers has information on the full range of medical
specialties that you can train in across the NHS. In partnership
with the medical royal colleges, we have compiled data on what it
is like to work in each specialty, the types of patients, disease
and conditions you are likely to encounter throughout your career,
the training pathways you can follow and a whole host of statistics
to help you understand what your future career prospects in that
specialty could be.
Use the menu on the left to research
information about specialties that interest you and bookmark any
that you wish to refer to again in the future.
We have seven or eight pages of
information for each specialty. Don't forget, there are over
60 specialties and many of the specialties are
included within the medicine and
surgery pages!
