Six months OJT as an apprentice in the local butcher shop should do it.

Texas recognizes PA’s. I am treated at my doctor’s office by one. No problem with it that I can see.
I told the witch doctor I was in love with you
I told the witch doctor you didn’t love me too
And then the witch doctor, he told me what to do
He said that....
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang...
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
I told the witch doctor you didn’t love me true
I told the witch doctor you didn’t love me nice
And then the witch doctor, he game me this advice
He said to...
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang...
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Now, you’ve been keeping love from me
Just like you were a miser
And I’ll admit I wasn’t very smart
So I went out and found myself
A guy that’s so much wiser
And he taught me the way to win your heart
My friend the witch doctor, he taught me what to say
My friend the witch doctor, he taught me what to do
I know that you’ll be mine when I say this to you
Oh, Baby....
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang...
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang
Ooo eee, ooo ah ah ting tang
Walla walla, bing bang

Most often the foreign medical graduates do their residency at non-university based residency programs that are a lot easier to be accepted at. This Missouri program lets them skip residency training, and makes it easier for them to flood American medicine with foreign medical graduates. These are not people graduating from highly-rated schools in the UK, or Germany etc. This is a big mistake, and by specifically linking lower standards with working in ‘underserved’ areas, it pushes lower-quality medical care specifically on these communities (including rural settings).
This is how it was in 1985 when I graduated.
It's no wonder doctors don't like this. People can opt to not have health insurance or for Seniors Medicare Part B and go to a less expensive clinic with a doctor who hasn't finished their residency but has recently completed, most current, medical knowledge.
When the Islamic FMG kill enough, even by
not washing their hands, Missouri will loose
one of their Senators - like Rhode Island.
Expect to see more mohamheads and abduls wearing white coats.
Teachers in NYC are allowed to teach with NO college degree.....just lowering the standard...
Ive had two doctors retire out from under me over CommieCare. Im not surprised by this move by MO and expect many more states to follow. Its too late to repeal O-Scare. The damage has been done and is largely irreversible.
I dont think this is correct...
A number of states allow medical school graduates to practice without completing residencies. In Arizona, for example, a medical school graduate who completes the first year of a residency (generally described as an Internship year) can get a license as a physician and practice medicine/hang up a shingle...
They’re just practicing.
Note to self: do not ever become sick in Missouri, especially in a rural area.
I don’t want to be seen by a med school graduate who has no experience actually seeing patients. No, thanks. There is a reason for internships.
Well, these doctors completed medical school which is not a small feat. The physician assistants (no medical school degree) are driving this objection because they have not completed medical school. The need is to fill the rural areas to provide access to care, at least by a real doctor, that hasn’t completed a residency.
I made numerous comments yesterday on people here on FR actually promoting homeopathy, which is nothing short of snake oil.
Kid of like the argument for more State/federal funding for schools - spend more money and it will all be better.....while such internships can have positive effects, it is also just as possible to get through one and be a lousy doctor and possible to be a good doctor w/o one...probably not a lot of net gain in throwing lots of "outside the profession" money at it.
So many doctors are turning over a good bit of their services to nurse practitioners. So far, I have no problem with that. All are very well qualified. Those that I’ve spoken with have told me the only reason they won’t become a doctor is the insurance cost.
A goodly portion of the “Doctor Shortage” particularly specialists is the result of Hillary Care. Rather than encouraging planting of more flowers along the nation’s freeways or bake some cookies, Hillary was destined to solve the nation’s medical crisis. Nobody was quite sure of what the crisis was, but the high cost of medical care was due to an excess of physicians. Although Hillary Care was never completely implemented, the Clinton administration was successful in reducing the number of Americans entering medical school by limiting the availability of government loans. That is why we now have a shortage of heart specialists and practically all of those are immigrants.
As long as there are limitations as to what surgery they can do I’ve no problem with this. A PA or a resident can handle internal medicine problems as well as a full termed resident qualified M.D. Its the surgery and specialties that need to make sure they don’t extend their practices into those realms. I’ve noted that osteopaths overextend their qualifications in the specialty services.
