Dr. Nisal Jayasinghe has recently arrived in Perth after more than two decades working in general practice, including 15 years running his own practice in Cardiff, Wales.
Originally from Sri Lanka, his medical career has taken him across three countries and many different chapters, but after years of carrying the responsibility of a busy practice, he was ready for a change.
His pathway to Australia wasn’t necessarily a quick one.
Having originally completed his MRCGP before August 2007, Nisal wasn’t eligible for the Expedited Specialist Pathway, meaning his journey was different to that of many UK-trained GPs relocating to Australia today.
While there was a possibility that his assessment may result in a Partially Comparable outcome, after reviewing the circumstances surrounding his training and qualifications, we were confident that his experience supported a Substantially Comparable outcome. That confidence was ultimately confirmed when Nisal received his Substantially Comparable assessment, an important milestone that allowed his plans for Australia to move forward.
There was also a very personal reason for choosing Perth, with much of his wife’s family already here.
We’re so pleased to have played a small part in helping Nisal reach this point, and even happier that I finally got to welcome him to Perth in person!
Nisal summed up this next chapter perfectly: “𝐼’𝑚 ℎ𝑎𝑝𝑝𝑦 𝑡𝑜 𝑏𝑒 ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑒𝑥𝑐𝑖𝑡𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑏𝑒 ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒. 𝐼’𝑚 𝑒𝑛𝑗𝑜𝑦𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑤𝑒𝑎𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟, 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑦 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑓𝑟𝑖𝑒𝑛𝑑𝑙𝑦 𝑝𝑒𝑜𝑝𝑙𝑒.”
