What next after D.N.B.Family medicine

Dear friends,
    One very common inquiry we are getting these days by new aspirants who want to develope career in family medicine by choice is what next after D.N.B. family medicine.Are we eligible for any DM or fellowships?See to be frank DM is not so easy after family medicine due to not so clear norm on that by many universities.You can do fellowships in diabetology,geriatric medicine,emergency medicine,infectious diseases,NRP which is kind of extension to your knowledge you gain during learning family medicine.Certain institutes like CMC Vellore allow family medicine graduate to apply for there fellowship in diabetology/Geriatrics.Many distant education courses are there in India and abroad which offer you degree in geriatric medicine,occupational health,industrial health and you can start corporate tie up and collaborate more with IT sector and industries.You can join national programmes,teaching in various international universities where you can teach family medicine.You can also go to Gulf,Canada,Australia to practice as family physicians  as demand is more there with lot of respect.many medical colleges are now opening geriatric medicine departments.D.N.B.family is eligible to join as faculty position like assistant professor/senior resident.So do choose wisely this field and if u enter do fight ,be a graduate and explore new horizons.No branch on earth is superior or inferior .You have to put your efforts to make it best on earth.Let Almighty bless us all.All the best.:-).
