Original post
Bonjour à tous,
Je suis une tunisienne de 24 ans, je viens de terminer mes études de médecine générale en français, il ne me reste plus que l'obtention du diplôme de Docteur en Médecine après soutenance de thèse, qui est une formalité,
je désire fortement m'installer en Turquie et y travailler, car j'adore ce pays.
je suis consciente qu'il faut apprendre le turc, c'est-ce que je compte faire, ici à Tunis;mais est-ce suffisant?
je recherche des réponses éclairées de gens qui s'y connaissent
mon diplome sera-t-il suffisant auprès de l'administration turque, ou bien il faut une procédure d'équivalence, quels documents à fournir et à qui(ambassade, consulat, ici, ou la-bas...)
dans quelle ville me conseillerez-vous de m'installer, (perso j'adore Istanbul mais l'immobilier y est cher)
bref, j'attends aussi des témoignages de la part de gens qui ont travaillé la-bas dans n'importe quel domaine
merci d'avance
Bonjour,
Pour être vraiment médecin en Turquie il faudrait repasser les diplômes.

tu ne pourras pas exercer en turquie
pourquoi tu ne vas pas faire ton doctorat en turquie?
pourquoi tu ne vas pas faire ton doctorat en turquie?
j'ai dit le doctorat pas toute ta medecine!
pour pouvoir exercer en turquie, il faut etre docteur en medecine et non simple medecin

bonjour, pour les études que je suis à Tunis il n'y a pas de médecin sans doctorat en médecine.
en effet terminer les études se suit automatiquement de la délivrance du diplome de docteur en médecine, donc , en ce qui me concerne, je pourrai dire que j'ai ce diplome(car comme je l'ai dit dans mon 1er message, sa délivrance suit la réussite des examens de la dernière année d'études- c'est ce que j'ai fait-)
Bonjour variance,
Pour travailler en Turquie comme médecin, il te faut l'équivalence du dîplome. Le mieux serait de téléphoner à l'ambassade Turque de ton pays pour connaître la procédure à suivre.
Obtenir l'équivalence dépend du pays dans lequel tu a fais tes études et, en général, ce n'est pas vraiment facile, sauf si la branche dans laquelle tu exerces est en pénurie de candidats dans le pays ou tu fais ta demande.
Bonne chance.

Bonjour,
Normalement médecin est en Turquie une profession protégée, et il faut repasser le diplôme turc sans équivalence possible. Mais il y a des possibilités de travailler sans doute dans le secteur médical, mais sans être vraiment médecin.

bonsoir,
je vous remercie pour votre aide, mais j'ai téléphoné à l'ambassade de turquie et on m'a dit que pour exercer une profession dans le secteur médical la-bas(médecin, infirmier, pharmacien;dentiste, opticien..) il FAUT ETRE DE NATIONALITE TURQUE!!!!!
eh ben cela anéantit tous mes projets, en effet comment vivre la-bas sans profession??
Bonsoir,
Non, normalement non. Certaines professions sont réservées aux turcs, mais pas médecin. Un peu de lecture...

Variance,
N'abandonne pas si facilement, si tu veux vraiment, il doit y avoir un moyen.
Tatra, Bien entendu qu'en Turquie, comme dans la plupart des pays développés, le métier de médecin est protégé. C'est bien pour cela que pour postuler un emploi de médecin dans un pays étranger, il faut voir avec l'ambassade si il existe une équivalence de diplôme. Si l'équivalence existe, il suffit la plupart du temps de représenter un examen propre au pays ou l'emploi a été demandé. Je suis pour l'instant occupée à demander l'équivalence du dîplome d'infirmier urgentiste pour devenir 'perfusionniste' (emplois hautement qualifié pour travailler en salle d'op sur des interventions cardio-vasculaires, ou des greffes "coeur- coeur-poumons" Il existe très peu de perfusionistes en Turquie.
Nemo, Lorsqu'un étudiant a obtenu le diplôme de 'docteur en médecine' il peut s'installer comme 'médecin de famille', ses études et ses stages sont TERMINES sauf si il décide de faire une spécialisation.
Bonne chance variance, n'abandonne pas ton rêve en chemin, persiste !!!

Bonsoir à tous,
Evidemment je n'ai nullement l'intention d'abandonner si facilement,
Michel, merci infiniment de ton document pdf, j'essaie de le lire en entier,
Marie, je te souhaite la réussite dans tes procédures d'équivalence, vous paraissez informée à propos des professions de santé fort en demande en turquie, alors serait -il mieux d'être généraliste ou bien un spécialiste est mieux le bienvenu, si c'est le cas, et si j'obtiens l'équivalence, je pourrai alors entamer des études de spécialité la-bas?

J'expliquais plus haut qu'à mon avis - mais je peux me tromper - il n'y a pas d'équivalence en soi mais qu'il faut passer l'examen.

Docteur en médecine ou médecin (simple médecin comme tu l'as écrit) c'est du pareil au même !

je comprend ce que tu me dis en connaissant le systeme francais.
c'est un peu different en turquie car le systeme d'un pays a l'autre n'est pas le copie du systeme francais
en turquie pour etre docteur il faut avoir fait une specialité qui dure bcp plus longtemps apres etre devenu "medecin" (6 années d'etude)

Bonsoir,
Je suis tombé par hasard sur ce forum car actuellement medecin generaliste en France et de doublenationalite turque-française, je souhaites de plus en plus m'installer en Turquie et y vivre.
Donc je souhaiterais savoir a qui m'adresser pour pouvoir exercer en Turquie et dans quelles structures. Je ne veux pas me lancer directement dans du liberal en ouvrant un cabinet, ce qui me semble difficile et risqué pour moi.
Bonjour Variance,
comme j'ai dit avant il ya des lois, numero 1219 et 6283 (lois pour infirmiere). Selon ces lois seulement celui qui est le turc ou bien le citoyen turc peut travailler dans le domaine de santé, comme infirmiere, aussi comme medecin. Mais on cherche a rediger ces lois. vous pouvez demander des renseignement dans le ministere de la Santé, par mail ou fax
le lois 1219 est un tres ancien des lois turc, sa date 1928. le nom de ce lois est : TABABET VE ŞUABATI SANATLARININ TARZI İCRASINA DAİR KANUN
Kanun Numarası (Le numero de lois) : 1219 Kanun Kabul Tarihi (la date ou ile a ete accepté): 11/04/1928 Yayımlandığı Resmi Gazete Tarihi (la date de la jounal ofiicielle) : 14/04/1928 Yayımlandığı Resmi Gazete Sayısı: 863 BİRİNCİ FASIL(premiere partie) : TABİPLER (les medecins) Madde 1 - Türkiye Cumhuriyeti dahilinde tababet icra ve her hangi surette olursa olsun hasta tedavi edebilmek için Türkiye Darülfünunu Tıp Fakültesinden diploma sahibi olmak ve Türk bulunmak şarttır. Dans le premiere article, il dit que pour travailler comme medecin dans la Republique Turquie il faut avoir diplome de la faculte de medecin de Turquie et il faut etre turc.

Hi everyone,
My name is Deborah, I’m French. I’m married and have two children. I’m a clinical psychologist specializing in psychotraumatology, and I’m also pursuing medical studies.
For some time now, I’ve been seriously considering moving to the United States. My long-term goal is to practice medicine in the U.S., with a particular interest in forensic pathology. I know the journey is demanding (USMLE, residency, fellowship, etc.), but I’m ready to commit to several years of hard work.
For now, I’m focused on building this project thoughtfully. I want to improve my English, better understand the American system, and connect with people who’ve already gone through this process or are living in the U.S.
I have a few questions:
- Are there any doctors or international students here who’ve successfully matched into a U.S. residency? - When did you start preparing for the USMLE? - What advice would you give to someone still in medical school? - Which states would you recommend for a future career in forensic pathology, with a good quality of life and good schools for kids? - Is it better to do an observership or a research fellowship before applying for residency? - What are, in your opinion, the pitfalls to avoid when planning such a project?
Thank you so much to everyone who takes the time to respond. I’d really appreciate any advice or experiences you can share!

Hi everyone, my son’s school is offering him a one-month Erasmus trip to Ireland, but he has to find a junior cycle school that will accept him and a host family on his own. Honestly, we’re struggling—we’ve contacted two schools and haven’t heard back! If you have any leads...

Hi there,
I’m considering moving to Miami to live and work for a few years.
If anyone knows what the administrative formalities are—both for getting a work permit and for the steps and reputable organizations to contact (since I imagine there are scammers in this space) when buying a studio in Miami or Miami Beach—I’d love any info you can share!
Have a great day

Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Bangkok for a 5-month internship, and I’m wondering about the budget because I’ve read all sorts of things—so I decided to post here to get answers tailored to my situation! :D I found housing that costs me 7,000 baht (I know it’s a bit pricey, but it’s super convenient...), which works out to about 160 € all-inclusive. So, I was wondering if it’s realistic to live on 500 or 600 € per month, and if so, under what conditions? Is that enough, considering I’ll be working 40 hours a week?
Thanks in advance for your replies—I hope they’ll reassure me!

Hi everyone,
WEP offers loads of different projects, including one I really like: helping and volunteering on a farm, particularly in South America (Peru or Argentina).
I’d love to know if anyone has tried this project or knows someone who has... or has done something similar? I’d like to get some feedback before diving into the adventure.
If so, could you share your thoughts on the project, any tips, etc.?
Thanks to anyone who replies!

Hi there,
Our departure time is getting closer (we have less than 2 years left—it’s both a long time and so short!). To start preparing seriously, we’ll need quite a bit of info. If anyone knows the rates charged by movers for a crate to French Polynesia, or what pitfalls to avoid (I know you can get quotes directly from movers, but I’d love insights from actual customers😉).
Are there any special requirements before leaving France (aside from taxes...)?
Thanks to everyone for your help—every bit of info is useful. We’re aiming for a departure around 06/2010 (just need to save up a little more...). Thanks again!

Hi, I’m a self-employed physiotherapist in France, and as my wife (a nurse) and I look into working abroad in about two years, I’ve been offered an equivalence to become a respiratory physiotherapist in Switzerland. Actually, I’m currently doing a postgraduate diploma in pediatric respiratory physiotherapy and want to specialize in that area. Anyway, that’s not the main point—could anyone explain the pros and cons of doing this job in Switzerland? Based on the paperwork I’ve received, the equivalence seems purely administrative or almost... What about working conditions, quality of life, salaries, etc.?
Thanks for your replies. PS: Same question for my wife, a nurse, regarding her integration.
Thanks, Nicolas and Bérengère

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for information about jobs in early childhood in New Caledonia. I’m currently a childminder in a MAM (multi-accueil) and I’ve also worked for about 6 years in several daycare centers as a childcare assistant. In the summer of 2026, my husband is being transferred to New Caledonia. We’ll be living near Nouméa. Do you know if the early childhood sector is a good field for jobs there? Can’t wait to discover this island! Right now, we’re in the middle of all the administrative paperwork for our 3 kids, finding housing, bringing our cat to the territory, and so on! Thanks for your feedback!!

Hi everyone!
I’d like to move to Spain, specifically to Málaga. To do that, I’d like to know if I’ll need any official documents from France to work there, or anything like that... I’d also love to hear from people who’ve moved to Spain for work—do Spaniards like the French? Is it hard to fit in? What are the salary ranges for a ready-to-wear salesperson? And is it easy to find housing?
Thanks! 🙂

Hi everyone! 👨🏾🤝👨🏻
My partner and I currently live in Antibes—we’re both freelancers working remotely. We’re thinking about potentially moving to Italy.
We’d like to settle near the French border, between Ventimiglia and San Remo (this is important because we need access to Nice Airport twice a month). ✈️
I’d love to hear about life in this region! We’re looking for a quiet spot close to the sea. Any recommendations? As for the paperwork, is it difficult to get everything official? Is finding housing tough in this area? What kind of guarantees are usually required? If any kind soul could shed some light on this, we’d really appreciate it! 🥺🏻
Thanks so much for your help and advice! ☺️

Hi everyone,
I’d like to get some information about my eligibility for the DV Lottery.
About my background: • I earned a *Bac Pro* through VAE (*Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience*), issued by the *Éducation nationale*. • I also have a professional certification as a *Conseiller en Insertion* (Employment Counselor), issued by the Ministry of Labor. • Altogether, this adds up to a *Bac+2* level.
I’d like to know if this level qualifies me to apply for the DV Lottery.
Regarding my work experience: • I work as an *Employment Counselor*. • I checked on O*Net Online for the classification: Job Zone 4, SVP Range: 7.0 – <8.0. • I only have one year of experience, but I handle similar tasks in business creation.
So my question is: can I apply for the DV Lottery despite my relatively short experience, given that my job falls under Job Zone 4?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice! !

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for info on villages around Aix, like Fuveau, Bouc-Bel-Air, or even Éguilles and Venelles? We’re a couple with a child living in the Paris region, and I’ll be relocating to Aix-en-Provence in spring 2026. We’d love to swap our apartment for a house with a pool within 20-30 minutes max of central Aix, with a budget of around 650k €.
In terms of climate and geography, I’ve read that Aix is in a basin where it can get really hot. What about the surrounding villages that are a bit more elevated, like Venelles? Is it just as stifling?
For a family, which area would you recommend?

Starting this spring, we want to settle near Aix-en-Provence. We're tired of living in the mountains with all the snow—we really need some sunshine and a fresh start. Is it hard to find a house to rent there? What about prices? If you have any great tips or useful info about the area, we’d love to hear it. I work in education and want to do prevention work in Marseille or Aix—are there jobs in the social sector?
Anyway, we need tons of info, but we’re sure we’re going to take the leap—no hesitation, adventure is adventure!!! Thanks for your help and any experiences you can share.

I’m an osteopath and I’d like to set up and open an osteopathy practice in Thailand. I don’t have a precise location in mind yet, but I’m thinking maybe Hua Hin. I saw there’s an osteopath based in Phuket, so I wrote to him for some info, but he still hasn’t replied🤪!
So I’m reaching out to people who live there or know the country well: I’d like to know what the best ways are to advertise and get known in Thailand. Are there any local classifieds newspapers? First, I’d like to practice from my apartment. Is that allowed in Thailand? Ideally, I’d like to work part-time in a private hospital as an osteopath. I’m thinking that in Thailand, the medical field is much more open than in Europe!!! Has anyone seen an osteopath or chiropractor working in a Thai hospital? Do you know the price of a consultation?
Any info you can share will be super helpful! Thanks in advance[;)!!!]

Hello everyone,
We’re a small family from the south of France, with a 2-year-old little boy, and we’re dreaming of starting a new adventure abroad by opening our own business. For now, we haven’t chosen a specific destination yet.
We mainly speak French, with a basic level of Spanish and English, and we’re ready to improve these two languages if needed. We’re looking for a multicultural, safe country with quality healthcare and good schools accessible for our son. We’d also love a pleasant place with a mild climate where life is good.
Our idea is to travel to different countries to explore, compare, and refine our project. We’d be really happy to read your tips, experiences, or anecdotes if you’ve already undertaken a similar project or if you know key points to anticipate.
Thanks in advance for your shares and help—it would really help us move forward with our project! 😄
Hi everyone,
I’m heading to Dublin as an au pair in a few weeks.
I’m looking for a reputable language school. It’s so hard to choose! Has anyone already done a language stay in Dublin? Any tips? Thanks so much! :)
Hi everyone, so I’m planning to go study at a community college in the U.S., but the only snag is which one—there are so many options over there! I’ve heard about one in California, Diablo Valley College, and another in Florida, Valencia College. I know both states are super attractive for tourism, but my main criteria are teaching quality and price. I’m open to any advice, comments, or suggestions—thanks in advance! The start of the semester is coming up, and I’m a little nervous...
READY, SET...... GO...... TO YOUR KEYBOARDS!!!!!!!! lol

Hi! I’m looking for an apartment in Malaga from September (2025) until January for my Erasmus exchange, but I’m not finding much, and it seems like there are a lot of scams. Does anyone have any leads or tips? Thanks!^^
