Procedures to work as an OB/GYN in Qatar

So my fiancé has cleared her usmle and is doing her residency as an ob/gyn in New York. She plans on moving to Qatar after the wedding. How do we get all the paperwork done and what are the procedures involved in order to work here? Is it hard to do what's necessary? Please explain in layman's term as I am a civil engineer by trade who has limited knowledge about the medical profession. Is it just one examination and an oral interview as the supreme council of health website says or does she have to sit for another exam for her specialization as well? OH yea and she’s a U.S. citizen I don’t know if that makes any difference. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Shes got one more year of residency left. Is the 5 year experience really necessary or does her residency and inernship count as experiance.

If she is doing her residency let her complete it first then she can get job in Hamad hospital easily.

Hi. If she completed 5 years experience after master degree in obgyn,then she has to do dataflow and if she has employer in qatar then she can go for evaluation and license procedure where she has to attend a viva.

if she is a general practicinior in obgyn(graduation), then she has to perform prometric online exam and dataflow.after graduation she must have 5 years experience.
