HAMAD MEDICAL RESIDENCY-someone please reply.

By Samiha1

I have read almost everything about Hamad Medical Residency. I have a few questions.
Is it recognized in Saudia Arabia? Can a doctor practice medicine at Saudia arabia after doing residency in Qatar or they have to live in qatar forever.I live in United States of America.I did my MBBS from India. Here I am working at a very prestigious university but not as a doctor. I did not get residency here so I am just doing research in Pathology.I have great recommendation letters and some publications. There is no hope that i will get residency here although I passed Usmle step 1, 2 and Cs.I want to work as a doctor/Pathologist..somewhere in some muslim country.
I read about qatar and I am very interested. I have 3 kids. I am in my early 30s. My husband is a engineer. please advice. Anyone??Thank you SO very much.
Also have some potential contacts in qatar.
