Hi there,

I afraid I agree with the above comments. I am currently in the process of finishing my last lot of requirements the work in the US. I am 9 years post grad with lots of manual based courses under my belt and because I never I had Physics or sociology as an A level I have to take exams in these subjects. I also had to do a tissue viabilty course because a small section on wound care was not part of my degree.

From what I can gather from colleagues in th US there are alot more restrictions clinically that there are here in the UK NZ and Australia, an probably lots of other places. The masters content and Doctorate for that matter is similar to our bachelors degrees here and we far outweigh the clinical hours put in as an undergraduate.

Sorry, I don't want to sound as though I'm slagging US degrees off!!

I Would be interested in hearing from any UK,NZ or OZ Physio's that have managed the uphill struggle for registration in the US.

Good luck in the Netherlands if you make it.
