What are the benefits of studying medicine in Guyana? - Benita Aymee - 07-03-2025
Guyana offers English-speaking medical education with lower tuition costs, international clinical rotation opportunities, and a culturally diverse environment. Its proximity to the U.S. and the presence of CAAM-HP accredited institutions make it a strategic choice for aspiring international doctors.

As a current medical student here in Guyana, I’d say one of the biggest benefits is the supportive learning environment. Classes are small, so professors know you by name and are approachable when you need extra help. Also, since English is the medium of instruction, I never had to struggle with a language barrier. Clinical rotations have been eye-opening — you really see a wide variety of cases, which builds confidence for the future.
