hello,
i just want to know if you can help me in this regard.
do you know of well equipped hospital in london i can
apply for a one-year internship?
i recently graduated from the premier university in
Nigeria- the University of ibadan, and we have to
proceed for a one year internship as the board that
regulates Physiotherapy practice in Nigeria requires
us to.
