As you might know, Guyana is a country in South America and is considered as part of the Caribbean. Taking admission into a Caribbean Medical University or going to the Caribbean or any foreign country for Medical Education is a life-changing decision. Well, when the decision is so crucial, it is wise to ask questions and gather as much information as much possible before making the final move. “Is it a good idea to study MD (equivalent to MBBS) in Guyana?” is one of such question and here are key factors about MD (equivalent to MBBS) in Guyana and the country that will help you come to a reasonable conclusion:

Well-Recognized Medical Universities 

Top Medical Universities in Guyana are well-recognized by global medical institutions and authorities like Medical Council of India (MCI) and Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) ensuring global validity of medical degree you obtain after completing MD (equivalent to MBBS) in Guyana.

To support our claim, we would like to tell you about Our University — ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ, a Medical University in Guyana — recognitions. Among other things, ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ’s main recognition are as under:

1.  Listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS)
2.  Approved by Medical Council of India (MCI)
3.  Certified by Educational Commission For Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG)
4.  Registered with National Accreditation Council of Guyana (NAC, Guyana)
5.  Registered with Foundation for Advancement of International Medical Education And Research (FAIMER)

Thanks to above recognitions, Medical Degree from ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ is valid in India, United States, Canada, the entire Caribbean, and countries as well.

English-Speaking Country & Education

Guyana is the only country in South America to have English as an official language. English is the international language, and if you know English already, you don’t have to learn any language, which is a major relief!

To make this benefit clearer, think about Non-English-Speaking Countries like China and Russia where you don’t have to deal with just Medical Curriculum but the curriculum to become an expert in the new language as well (like Russian and Chinese). Cumbersome! Isn’t it? 

Since Guyana is an English-Speaking Country, entire MD (equivalent to MBBS) or other Education Programs in Guyana are taught in English language only.

Quality of Education & Clinical Training

In Guyana, Medical Universities follow US-based Medical Curriculum, which ensures great quality of education being imparted. Further, being a Medical Student in Guyana, you will get plenty of opportunities to get clinical training in different countries, including USA, Canada, and other global destinations.

If you go for admission into a Medical University which is certified by ECFMG, like ¾«¶«Ó°Òµ, you can also prepare for USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination) Steps along with your MD (equivalent to MBBS) Program to increase your chances of getting Paid Residency in the US after your medical graduation from Guyana.

Cost of Education and Living

 

In Guyana, the cost of Education, clinical training, and living are much lower compared to respective costs in mega-countries like US, Canada, Australia, etc.

 

For example, at Lincoln America University, the entire fee for 5-Year US-based MD Program is US$ 35,000 (approx.) while in countries like the US, this fee may not cover even the 1-Year Tuition Fees. 

 

Most of the medical aspirants have limited funds to complete their medical education, and the affordable universities for MD (equivalent to MBBS) in Guyana remove financial hurdle from their way, allowing such students to live their dream.

 

Infrastructure
