The information is not available. NHS Digital can provide estimates of numbers leaving the National Health Service in England in the Hospital and Community Health Service by nationality, but cannot readily identify the reasons for leaving, such as resignation. General practitioners’ country of Primary Medical Qualification can be identified, but further details by nationality are not available.
