About
Our guides are written and maintained by the licensing consultants and exam-prep tutors at Prometric Medical Consultancy, a Dubai-based advisory that has helped healthcare professionals from South Asia, the Philippines, Africa and the Middle East obtain DHA, DOH, MOHAP, SCFHS, QCHP, NHRA and OMSB licences.
Every article is built from the authority's own published requirements and fee schedules, cross-checked against the cases our team handles each week — the document rejections, classification outcomes and exam experiences of real candidates — and reviewed when an authority changes its rules.
Figures such as fees, salaries and pass marks are stated as ranges and dated, because authorities revise them without notice. Where we are not certain, we say so and point you to the official portal.

- SCFHS classification and the Saudi Licensing Exam
