A lady who is a qualified medical doctor in Nigeria is now working in the UK as a support worker She posted a video on TikTok to tell people why she was downgraded to the level of a support worker after arriving in the UK The lady said she moved to the UK for studies and she was thinking she would work and study, but things didn’t go as planned.
She had moved to the UK to do a masters degree in public health, and she was hoping to work and study at the same time.
when she got to the UK, she had to be registered there as a doctor before she would be allowed to work.
She said she had to first pass the Professional and Linguistic Assessments Board (PLAB 1) test, which is compulsory for non-UK-trained medical doctors who would like to practice in the country.
In the meantime, she was a student, and she had bills to pay, which meant she had to do something to earn money. That was how she started working as a support worker 20 hours a week to earn enough money to care for herself. The doctor said she was scared of what people would say, but at a point, she did not care anymore.
