Who We Are

Our Values

  • The Right to a Happy and Fulfilling Life

    We aim to assist displaced Doctors regain their professional identity and prospects.

  • Support the National Health Service

    Supporting the UK qualification of Displaced Doctors will provide our NHS with highly qualified and talented professionals, benefitting wider communities and the struggling NHS. As tomorrow’s Doctors, we want to be part of the solution to the staffing crisis facing the NHS.

  • Support the Displaced Community

    Supporting the Displaced Community should be a priority of the British Medical Community. We provide a space for Medical Students and Doctors to use their privileged position to act as allies to the Displaced Community, as well as highlighting some of the challenges faced by Displaced Doctors.

  • Support the Professional Development of Passionate Young People

    We provide opportunities to young people, at the beginning of their professional journey, to enable them to develop their skills and professional identities.

Our Mission

We exist to support the qualification of Displaced Doctors to practice in the UK, provide a warm welcome on behalf of the UK medical profession, and increase medical students and doctors’ engagement with issues affecting Displaced Communities. 

Our History

We were founded in 2019 by Jonny and Molly, at the time, two second year Medical Students at The University of Nottingham, and now fully qualified Doctors entering their speciality training. Since then, we have supported Displaced Doctors through their UK qualifications to practice Medicine, predominantly through English Language teaching sessions, thereby simultaneously providing the NHS with highly qualified and talented professionals. We have expanded to The Universities of Leeds, Bristol and Oxford, with the hope of future expansion to all UK Medical Schools.

Our Team

Our team comprises both UK Medical Students and recently qualified Doctors, and we currently operate in Nottingham, Leeds, Bristol and Oxford.

“I will be forever grateful for The Phoenix Project and would highly recommend it to any IMG (International Medical Graduate) considering Medical Practice in the UK. Additionally, I have expressed my interest to collaborate with them in the future as a way to give back to this great organisation.”
