British GP's in Doha?

Hi!

I am a British GP and considering moving to Doha with my family.

Are there any hospitals/ clinics/ practices who employ British GP's, and would it be possible to work part-time?

If there are any doctors out there, any advice would be much appreciated!

Many thanks

TC

Not really sure why any hospitals/clinics would want to specifically recruit a British GP as they would be 4-5 times more expensive than other nationalities and not necessarily 4-5 timers better. I have found Indian doctors here in Dubai to be perfectly okay.

General Practitioner, means a doctor in a normal surgery, not a specialist.

Re: British GP's in Doha?

I should probably have explained: GP = General Practiticioner. In the UK they work in private practices (ie. not hospitals) and are the 'first port of call' for medical treatment. Is there an equivalent in Qatar?
