The program provides a comprehensive blend of clinical training and academic learning in managing complex adolescent health issues across multiple clinical sites in Dublin. This fellowship fosters my professional growth and expands my clinical knowledge to provide holistic and compassionate care to teens.” 

Adjusting to a new culture and language is challenging, especially with children, but the exceptional support from Educational Castle prior to our arrival made it manageable. 

Transitioning between hospitals each year was beneficial in providing a broad and rich experience with various clinical cases, while interacting with numerous professors and senior consultants who greatly enhanced my knowledge in the field. I am particularly grateful to the Clinical lead in Cardiology, Professor Jim Crowley, for his outstanding support and guidance whenever I sought assistance. 

Life in Ireland has been comfortable, with friendly and helpful people contributing to an easier transition. I extend my gratitude to all RCPI members and the medical staff l encountered.” 

The balanced work load, exposure to inpatients care, outpatients clinic and having a fully functional pulmonary function as well as sleep labs make the program excellent. Everyone was supportive even prior to my arrival to the country! 

I am really grateful for all my colleagues who made my journey smooth and rewarding. Thank you!” 

This has made a huge difference to me and has always made me feel comfortable with my decision to train in Ireland.  

Another strength point about my training here is the fact that my training so far has been in specialist hospitals where there is a great variety of cases and interaction with other medical specialties.” 

Ireland's rich medical heritage and commitment to education were major draws for me. I often found myself motivated by the high standard of practice in the country, making it an ideal setting for my training.  

The support I received from Castel Education has been outstanding. From the very beginning, their commitment to find the perfect place and settle me for a comfortable beginning for my journey in Ireland was ideal. The mentors provided by RCPI and access to resources were instrumental in helping me navigate the complexities of my training. Whether it was through structured workshops, one-on-one mentorship, or networking opportunities, I always felt supported and empowered to improve. 

My training experiences in Ireland have been both challenging and rewarding. The curriculum was designed to prepare us thoroughly for our future careers. The diverse patient population in Ireland offered me a unique perspective on medicine, which I believe has shaped my approach to patient care.  

Life outside of training has been equally rewarding. The Irish culture is welcoming and engaging, making it easy to build connections and friendships. From exploring the breathtaking landscapes to enjoying the vibrant city life, my time in Ireland has been filled with personal growth and unforgettable experiences.  

For those who are looking for outstanding experiences in life and professional careers, I encourage you to take the chance. The combination of exceptional training and a supportive community creates the perfect atmosphere for professional and personal development.”
