How to pay your membership fee

Direct Debit

If you have a UK bank account, you can pay by a single or monthly direct debit. The majority of our eligible members find this the most convenient way to pay.

Credit/Debit Card

You can pay by card online via the member dashboard.

Other Payment Methods

We encourage our members to pay by Direct Debit or credit/debit cards, but you can still pay your subscription fees offline. Payments done via cheque, bank transfer and BACS require more time to be processed and you may not have access to your benefits during that time.

Claim Tax Back

If you live in the United Kingdom, your annual subscription is an allowable deduction for Income Tax purposes. You can login to your dashboard and download a report from the My Receipts page.

Dr Aung Khine

What motivates you in your career?

What motivates me in my career is how much more I can help other people by pursuing my own personal development. If, for example, I improve my skills and experience in looking after people with COVID-19, it translates into many of such people getting better or surviving under my care. The main reason I came to work in the NHS was because I wanted a first-hand experience of how things were being done in one of the world’s top-notch health services, and to see how much of it could be applied to my practice in one of the lowest-ranking healthcare systems in the world. (And yes, that experience made a huge difference!)

If you could change anything what would it be?

If only I could “change” anything (in terms of healthcare, I presume), it would be an NHS for every country in the world. But experience has taught me that there is only so much change we can bring about when it comes to the natural course of anything, be it an individual person’s illness or the destiny of a people. I would be content if I can “improve” things to the extent that circumstances allow for.

Dr Stephanie Indun James

What matters to you?

Equality, kindness, dignity at work and respect.

What motivates you in your career?

My patients and seeing them improving. Also my family back home of whom are dedicated to the calling of medical professions.

If you could change anything what would it be?

Equal service provision and open policy training for non-EU doctors working in EU hospitals. We are as passionate and capable like our colleagues. Being disadvantaged due to our different background and ethnicity should not be happening in this era of the world we living in.

Dr Sudipta Roy

What matters to you?

Professional ethics, compassion and love for Medicine.

What motivates you in your career?

The constant change and challenges in the profession and aspiration for learning and developments.

Dr Jennifer Mary Anne Burns

What matters to you?

Education and training of health care professionals and supporting career- long development.

What motivates you in your career?

Promoting better health care for older people

If you could change anything what would it be?

Redesign of services should focus on the needs of the older frail and disabled, services that work for this group will work for all and the NHS will be able to continue to deliver excellent care.
