31. Permit for Physician Olim to work
Manuel Bernstein ,   Israel   (01.18.16)
Not only french doctors have problems , any one coming to Israel has these problem, they force the ole to take exams in Hebrew , and that are really made to fail you. Your experience has no value at all in these country. And even though there is a lack of physicians in the country , and the patient has to wait months for a consult, nothing is done to absorb all these perfectly train Doctors.

#17-I'm a doctor myself and have colleagues who have made Aliyah recently, and what happened is as i described. #30. Thank you for generalising about a whole people. I've lived here for 20 years and Israelis are of all different types and on the whole wonderful people who speak their minds, receive others' direct opinions without being offended, and mostly care about their country and people, wanting to make it a better place. Some are indeed arseholes but Israel doesn't have the monopoly on that. Your blinkered, rigid, easily offended and generalising attitutude would not fit in here so its good you stay where you are.
33. French medical specialists olim
anny joseph ,   jerusalem,Israel   (01.24.16)
It is ridiculous to suggest that French doctors etc are not up to par the Israeli (excellent medical) level. Their diplomas should be evaluated with fairness ,by a competent committee ,They should be quickly trained on Israeli rechniques-which can be different in France- and receive an intensive course in spoken and written Hebrew, I read that their evaluation exam will be in French . . First step in the right direction .
34. #23 thank you so much for the laugh!!!
