gp register
Colegio Oficial de Médicos


Explanation:
"This doctor is not on the GP Register": "Este médico no está colegiado".

The translation will depend on the country in which the text is to be used.

In Spain there is no Colegio Oficial de Médicos de España, but doctors are registered in the province in which they normally practice. The term "colegiado" is roughly equivalent to "registered". In general, a physician must be colegiado in order to practice medicine.

In Spain, there are no medical associations by specialty. A physician may join, if he/she wishes, the Society of his/her choice (Sociedad Española de Pediatría, Sociedad Madrileña de Neurología, etc. - Spanish Society of Pediatrics, Madrid Society of Neurology, etc.). However, this is not necessary to be able to practice as a physician; it is only a way of accessing training courses, congresses, etc. It has a continuing education function.

I am a General Practitioner.

gp register
Registro de Médicos Especialistas en Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria


Explanation:
Ver referencia abajo con la explicación de General Medical Council (GMC) y GP.

El 'GP' o General Practitioner en el Reino Unido requiere una especialización de 3 años para poder ejercer como tal. Sí, en otros países se les puede llamar médico de familia, de cabecera, etc. pero por ser algo muy único del Reino Unido creo que esta denominación vendría muy bien. Además es un título oficial en España.

El título oficial de Médico Especialista en Medicina Familiar y Comunitaria fue creado a través del Real Decreto 3303/1978, de 29 de diciembre, norma que, asimismo, estableció como sistema ordinario y habitual para su obtención la formación mediante residencia en los centros sanitarios. Se iniciaba así, en España, una formación específica para los Médicos de Familia que, posteriormente, y a través de la Directiva 86/457/CEE, del Consejo de las Comunidades Europeas, fue implantada con carácter general en todos los Estados miembros de la actual Unión Europea

Un GP en el Reino Unido necesita especialización

For general practice, you would enter the specialty training programme at the start of ST2. When the GP training programme is completed satisfactorily, you will be eligible for a Certificate of Completion of Training (CCT).

Your training programme will usually include three years of approved clinical training, or the equivalent part time. Some regions offer longer programmes that include academic work, fellowships or an ST4 year.

Reference: General Medical Council (GMC) and GPs

Reference information:
The General Medical Council (GMC) is a public body that maintains the official register of medical practitioners within the United Kingdom

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/General_Medical_Council

The medical register is a list of doctors in the United Kingdom, showing their registration status, training and other useful information

GP Register and Specialist Register

https://www.gmc-uk.org/registration-and-licensing/the-medica...

All doctors intending to practise medicine in the UK are required to be registered with the GMC, follow the GMC’s good medical practice guidance and be subject to the GMC Fitness to Practise actions. Doctors who hold registration but not a licence may be working as an academic or outside the UK

https://www.healthcareers.nhs.uk/explore-roles/doctors/infor...

General practitioners (GPs) provide continuing medical care for patients in the community. They're usually a patient's first point of contact, seeing them in the surgery, at their home or within other settings such as care homes.
