I gave up following several delays and reading Internet forums. My recruitment agent who got me the SIDRA offer found me alternative Middle East opportunities and I also went back to direct applications.

They are meant to starting the on boarding process again with a view to open inpatient services next year. I'm still reluctant to go out until the hospital is actually open and running, as I'd be leaving a good job here. They also haven't adjusted the salary since my first offer two years ago. Which is completely ridiculous. I do know someone who is is out there and has been for about 3 years. But then I also know someone who was sent home as they wasn't able to get her working. In which area will you be based?

I went directly with the hospital. I'd be in picu (if I ever get there)
I just can't face packing up here and going to work in the neighbouring hospital or in outpatients. It would kill me. I went out to see the hospital two years ago. Doha is very nice. Compact city. But I'm sure it'd be Great to live there!

Thanks for sharing your experience of visiting Doha. You said you know someone who has been there 3 yrs now? Is she single or married with family over there. Would you advice settleing in first before relocating my family with me?
