To hold a GMC licence to practice in the UK, every doctor is required to be revalidated every five years.
Revalidation is the process by which all licensed doctors are required to demonstrate on a regular basis that they are up to date and fit to practice in their chosen field and able to provide quality of care. This means that holding a license to practice is becoming an indicator that the doctor continues to meet the professional standards set by the GMC and the specialist’s standard set by the medical.
Essential eligibility requirements for domestic and overseas candidates who want to work in UK organisations will be dependent on a standard medical assessment. Specific criteria will depend upon the organisation but will include:
• References
• Right to work in UK
• IELTS (non-EU only)
• PLAB (non-EU only)
Total Assist is here to help you with all your revalidation needs. Offering you 24/7 support and guidance on why revalidation is important to you, the criteria for revalidation as well as helping doctors who do not have a designated body.

Revalidation is a 5-year cycle and the end result of the appraisal process. The Responsible Officer of your Designated Body (Total Assist Recruitment Ltd) we won’t make a judgement on your fitness to practice based on your previous appraisal outcomes and progression against your PDP. The end result is a positive revalidation, a deferral, or non-engagement. All doctors are expected to participate in the yearly appraisal process and provide evidence of such (by way of appraisal outcome) to their Responsible Officer.
