Hi everyone,
I just joined Physio so this is my first message. I am a PT in the U.S.
and am interested in moving to and working in the U.K. I am writing so
see if anyone has any ideas about what I need to do to accomplish this.
I would also appreciate anyone's insight about the availability and
conditions of jobs in England (Cambridge in particular).
Thank you in advance!!
JE
