Moving to denmark as a doctor

I was wondering how would it be graduating as a specialized doctor/resident in italy an then moving to denmark, especially in Copenaghen.

How healthcare is? How well balanced it is that kind of job, if you get paid for every hour of work ( in italy you dont for example). What are the main problems of healthcare in denmark and why should i move there?

also as a couple of doctor how would it be ?

having a child, socializing with people… ecc

  How is your Danish?


To get full Danish authorisation (autorisation), you must pass the official Prøve i Dansk 3 (PD3) language exam with a high score (minimum 10 in oral, 7 in reading/writing). This usually requires 12 to 18 months of intensive study.


You'll also need to convert your Italian qualification, should be simple as Italy is in the EU. but need to converted all the same.

Hi,


There are some Facebook groups aimed at foreign doctors. I think it may be useful for you to join such a group.
