Title רופאים עולים חדשים מפגינים.
Additional Titles Immigrant Doctors Demonstrate. [picture]
Scope and content Several hundred Soviet immigrant doctors demonstrated opposite the Knesset over the fact that they have to take examination before being allowed to practice in Israel. The immigrants claim that the examinations are intended to keep Russian doctors aut of the already over subscribed profession, Israel has one of the highest doctor/patient ratios in the world. The Health Ministry has responded by saying that with the exception of new immigrants from the U.S. and certain English speaking countries - who do not have to take the examination - all new immigrant doctors have to sit the examination before being licensed, The Ministry has said that its only reason far having the licensing exams is to maintain a high standard of medicine in Israel. However it is only since 198? that the ministry has made an exam a necessity for doctors who already have bone-fide certificates from their country of origin a condition of receiving a license, Up until 1987 the verification of the certificates from the country of origin was sufficient to get an Israeli license, The Ministry make available free preparatory courses for immigrant doctors, at the moment about 603 pass the exam. It is not unusual for immigrant doctors in other western countries to have to sit a licensing exam, particularly to make sure that they fully understand the local language. Photo shows:
