The ADONIS Medical Group’s private higher education institution (PHEI) has begun recruiting for its residency program. As Lilia Ponamaryova, ADONIS’s Vice Rector for Strategic Development, told Interfax-Ukraine, the residency program is conducted at ADONIS’s modern medical centers, which are equipped with state-of-the-art equipment.
As part of the new recruitment drive, training programs are now available in the following specialties: surgery, neurology, otorhinolaryngology, dermatology and venereology, orthopedics and traumatology, general practice—family medicine, obstetrics, and gynecology.
Interns will work under the supervision of experienced physicians who serve as mentors and impart practical skills and clinical experience.
“We eagerly await new interns who are eager to develop, learn, and work in modern medicine. ADONIS creates all the conditions for professional growth and the start of a successful medical career,” said Ponamaryova.
She noted that the institute already has a successful track record of training interns, and a systematic training model has been developed at the university that combines theory, clinical reasoning, and real-world practice.
ADONIS emphasizes that the residency program is focused on training doctors who work according to the principles of evidence-based medicine, confidently make clinical decisions, and are ready to work with patients from the very first years of their professional careers.
“Our goal is not simply to produce a certified specialist, but a doctor who thinks critically, analyzes, and takes responsibility for clinical decisions. That is why interns are fully engaged in practical work and learn directly in a clinical setting. A high-quality internship is a key stage in a doctor’s development, and we continue to refine our training programs in line with modern medical standards and the needs of the healthcare system,” said Ponamaryova.
The private higher education institution “Institute of General Practice – Family Medicine” was established in 2007 by the ADONIS medical group to train specialists who will receive a state-recognized diploma in the field of specialized and general medical practice. The institution holds a valid license for medical practice.
Founded in 1997, Adonis is a multidisciplinary medical center for adults and children. The medical group includes seven modern clinics in Kyiv and the region, over 80 medical specialties, its own laboratories, surgical centers, inpatient facilities, and departments staffed by specialized professionals.
Kuwaiti authorities are preparing to launch a new residency visa for freelancers that will allow foreign specialists to work for themselves without the traditional employer sponsorship system (kafala). The plans were announced by First Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Interior Sheikh Fahd Al-Yousef Al-Sabah, who noted that the initiative is aimed at combating illegal trade in residence permits and “visa brokers.”
According to media reports, the annual government fee for the new residency category will amount to KD 750–1,000 (in some publications, the equivalent is estimated at about $2.45–3.26 thousand), and the launch is expected within the next two months—roughly in March–April 2026.
As specified, in the first phase, the program may be limited to “simple”/low-risk professions, with preliminary requirements including registration of a confirmed residential address, provision of valid contact details and correct personal information. The full list of areas, application mechanics and final selection criteria are to be announced separately by the competent authorities.
Kuwaiti authorities expect that the new scheme will legalize independent employment, reduce the scale of grey practices in the labor market, and increase budget revenues through direct payment of fees to the state.
