Podiatrist/chiropodist quals in Nova Scotia
Hi all,
my brother is thinking of considering a move to NS (must be the holiday vids and positive publiciity from moi ).
He was wondering if he would have to reassess his quals. He is currently self employed podiaitrist and has been working for past two years in the uk.
I read somewhere that pods in NS are not regulated as in other provinces.
Just wondered if there were any other pods who are now in NS or have any useful info about getting pod/chiropodist jobs in NS.
As always, any info is gratefully received
Many thanks
Sean

a UK graduate should be able to work in NS, the problem might be getting offered a post, I don't think there are many practitioners there, which might limit opportunities.

My wife wants me to have the job of the century before we move deluded.com
Guess she's just worried that we move and not able to improve our quality of life.
Thanks again

canadians seem to prefer employing canadians, your brother however may not face this as most of his likely employers are likely to be expats

Re: the wife, I can see why she is tentative (and the current currency situation doesnt help), but I know that we are going to have to take a side step rather than an upward step...guess that's the reality of moving to another country
Oh well just have to keep on keeping on!

valid point, and I suppose there is always the self employed route, as he is used to running his own business currently.

Big on the maritime theme, but inland very rural, which is what we like really. I grew up near the sea so would be great to eventually go back there.
