Can I work in the UK?

Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.

How it works

How it works: NHS nurses, doctors and allied health get a Health and Care Worker visa (about 3 weeks, no health surcharge); care workers lost this route on 22 July 2025.

Before you apply: Nurses, doctors and most allied health staff must be registered or licensed locally before they start: expect checks on your degree and licence, often an English test, and often an exam or an assessment. Ask the employer who handles it and how long it takes. Most pharma and device office jobs do not need it.

Watch for: Pay follows the NHS pay bands and is usually at least GBP 25,000. Nurses and allied health also need UK professional registration; care workers cannot be sponsored from abroad.

About The New Foscote Hospital

The New Foscote Hospital is a private hospital in Buckinghamshire, England, serving patients from the local area and surrounding regions. It provides consultant-led medical and surgical services, outpatient consultations, diagnostic support, and specialist treatment in a private healthcare setting. The hospital is associated with a multidisciplinary clinical team and aims to offer personalised care, modern facilities, and efficient access to consultants. A Consultant Dermatologist may support patients with general and complex skin conditions, undertake assessments and procedures where appropriate, and contribute to a high standard of patient experience. As with any independent hospital, specific services, consultant arrangements, and vacancies can change, so candidates should confirm current terms, clinical privileges, governance requirements, and sessional or fee structures directly with the hospital.
