I had to go to the VA today to be assessed for disability, and it really stressed me out, so I plan to get drunk earlier than normal. I had this fucking Indian woman as my Doc and she seemed to know less about medicine than I do. Good thing I have enough booze to get through this day!

Foreign medical graduates go through an extensive review and testing process in the US. To greatly simply things, after taking a difficult exam, they go through a long period of being watched by other physicians before they're qualified to "saw bones". At any point in the process, they could be disqualified. I wouldn't think twice about being seen by a doctor who went to medical school in India, however, everyone is human. There are bad doctors, mediocre doctors, and good ones. Unfortunately, the VA doesn't have the best reputation in this area. To me, "VA doc" is more of a red flag than anything else, and I wish I didn't have to say that. There's some personal experience there that I'm not going to go into here.frankennietzsche wrote:Just for a bit of clarification,foreign personages who have received their medical education in a land other than these United States or Canadia, have quite a few obstacles to being able to saw some bones here. I think that a lot of south Asians actually go to medical school and get certification in America.
