Many of those so called FMG’s stealing jobs, are American citizens themselves!
Many of these Caribbean med schools get their bread and butter from American students.
Im an American citizen myself, as were most of my class. In fact, most of the people I know who are currently in residency and went to FMS’s are all, and always have been American citizens.
Residency programs actually look for two things these days more then anything else when you are a FMG. You Step 1 and 2 grades, and your VESA STATUS!
Hospitals dont just give jobs away.
And there is one over arching reason why Americans go to these foreign schools… THEY ARE CHEAP!
These arent non US citizen meds sneaking across the border, these are red blooded Americans crossing the border the opposite direction…![]()
And Beck isnt attacking the premise that jobs are being lost to foreigners, he is defending his talking point. He is told by his FOX executive masters to support a talking point and he will do his utmost to do so… American health care is apparently the best in the world, and all he has to defend his BS is denigrating Indian medical system, and by extension, all FMG’s. He obviously doesnt know any of the facts regarding FMGs in the US. I wouldnt be surprised if the docs who treated him for his Hemorrhoids a few years ago, themselves werent FMGs.
