NHS panels and consultants don't read CVs the way industry does. They scan for GMC number, training grade, specialty, audits, teaching, publications. sausagedog leads with those and rewrites the rest properly.

Why a Doctor CV is different
A Doctor CV is read against very different signals to a generic CV in the UK. Generic tools bury GMC number, MRCP/MRCS, specialty and grade. Your audits, QIPs and teaching get reduced to one bland line. Application windows are short. Your CV shouldn't be the bottleneck.
Sausage Dog leads with GMC, grade, specialty, royal college exams, the things panels scan for. Uses real clinical language: on-call, MDT, audit cycle, QIP, teaching, supervision. Rewrites bullets around clinical responsibility, governance and outcomes.
Our underlying research, We read 188 UK doctor job adverts, found that 58% name GMC registration. That single signal often decides whether a CV makes the shortlist.

Frequently asked
How does Sausage Dog tailor a doctor CV?+
Sausage Dog reads the doctor job description you paste in, identifies the keywords, responsibilities, and qualifications it asks for, then rewrites your existing CV to mirror that language while keeping every fact in your real experience intact. The result is an ATS-friendly CV in under a minute.
Is the output ATS-friendly for doctor roles?+
Yes. The tailored CV uses plain formatting, mirrors the exact keywords in the job description, and keeps section headings (Experience, Education, Skills) that applicant tracking systems are built to parse. No tables, columns, or fancy headers that break ATS scans.
Will the rewritten doctor CV still sound like me?+
That is the whole point. Sausage Dog rewrites your real bullet points in your tone, not corporate jargon. It does not invent qualifications or experience you do not have, it just sharpens what is already there for the specific doctor role.
Is it free to tailor a doctor CV?+
Yes. You can tailor one CV per day on the free tier with no card needed. Premium (£9/month) gives unlimited tailoring plus cover letters, interview prep, and LinkedIn rewrites for the same role.
