Dr. Madhurika Jalakam

Hello, I’m Dr. Madhurika Jalakam — a Junior Doctor working at East Kent Hospitals University NHS Foundation Trust in the UK, and an aspiring Anaesthetics trainee. I completed my MBBS from MNR Medical College and moved to the UK after successfully clearing PLAB and registering with the GMC. Having transitioned from the Indian medical curriculum into the NHS system, I understand how overwhelming and confusing this journey can be for IMGs. That’s why I’m passionate about mentoring others — to help simplify the process and provide clarity where it’s most needed. As your mentor, I can support you in: Understanding how the NHS works and what to expect Preparing effectively for PLAB 1 and PLAB 2 Completing your GMC registration step-by-step Strengthening your communication skills for clinical practice Bridging the gap between Indian training and UK medical practice If you're preparing for your UK journey and want real insights from someone who’s been there — I’m here to guide you. Let’s take the next step in your NHS journey, together.
