[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a shortage of skilled doctors in the US. We should be allowing more visas/greencards to foreign trained medical students/residents/fellows/doctors.[/quote] Better if we allowed qualified American students to go to medical school without having to jump through so many hoops and take way more years than FMGs. Many smart capable students decide against medical school because of all the crazy admissions requirements that are not required in other countries. In the other end, there is a huge growing shortage of doctors and so many practices looking to hire yet can’t find any doctors. Talk about shooting yourself in the foot- that’s what America is doing. Also, corporations should not be able to donate so much money to politicians. The special interests is destroying this country. [/quote] And the costs to go to medical school. Direct and indirect. Oh you need direct patient care experience to be desirable (shadowing your Ortho uncle at the hospital) and research experience on the bench (taking two summers to be an unpaid intern at a Hopkins) and volunteer work showing your ability to care for the misfortunate (soup kitchen work) while people who actually have to work to pay back loans and cant afford summers unpaid and who have actually worked in healthcare arent desirable enough candidates.
