While I agree with what you are saying, shouldn’t there be a way for well-trained foreign doctors to get licensed to practice here without it taking an inordinate amount of time and money? A friend of mine came here from Russia where he was a pediatrician but gave up on practicing in the US due to the hurdles & cost. Instead he pivoted and got certified in database administration and turned that into a great career - he is an absolutely brilliant guy but is still (after many years) a little disappointed he had to give up his medical career.
