Along with my PhD field, can I continue my medical practice in Ireland?

Yes, you can continue your medical practice alongside your PhD studies in Ireland, but you must be registered with the Irish Medical Council (IMC).

As an international medical graduate, you’ll need to apply for IMC registration, which may involve verifying your medical qualifications and possibly passing the Pre-Registration Examination System (PRES). Once registered, you can seek employment in the Irish healthcare system.

Balancing both roles will require strong time management. Consult your academic institution and potential employers to ensure your work schedule fits your study commitments.
