Our Vision
KUMA is a UK-based association of Korean medical professionals registered with the General Medical Council (GMC) in the UK. Our organisation is committed to serving the Korean community in the UK and assisting Koreans in navigating the UK healthcare system. Moreover, we serve as advocates for Korean doctors working within the NHS, representing our perspectives to both the UK's NHS and in Korea.

재영한인의사협회 (KUMA)는 2006년 영국에 있는 의학과 치과학 전공 대학생들로 시작되었습니다. 그 이후로 다양한 전문분야 의사들과 한국, 캐나다, 호주 등에서의 동문들을 포함한 모임으로 성장했습니다
The event was really informative and getting the networking opportunity was invaluable.
