The Membership of the Royal Colleges of Physicians (MRCP) is not a specialist in itself but rather a postgraduate qualification for physicians in the UK and other countries. It signifies that a doctor has passed a series of exams assessing their knowledge and clinical skills in internal medicine. Holding an MRCP can lead to further specialization, but it is primarily a credential that demonstrates a physician's competence in general medicine.
