Story out of Australia about two things:
1 - massive forgery of Indian credentials
2 - Australia starting to accept Indian credentials being as good as Australian ones

Apparently the Albanese Government recently decided that if you got a medical degree in India, you can come practice in Australia.

Australia definitely has a shortage of doctors, just like the US. Especially in the Outback.

Australia has also made a lot of money off of bringing in Indian students to get them Australian credentials by studying in Australia. So, I wonder if this move will kill off that cash cow for Australia - if Indian students no longer need Aussie credentials.

In my line of work, I've noticed that we're accepting Indian credentials more readily now and there are a small number of exceptions but, by and large, the Indians we're hiring suck.

IG guy sums it up here:

Bad news for the Aussies then. Every single Indian doctor I've come across has been a worthless quack on a power trip.

Man, this topic is like a bat signal for a certain poster

Were they credentialed in the US or in India?

I have opposite experience but they were credentialed in the US. Then again, we do our research before selecting our doctors.

For me it's Egyptian doctors I avoid.
Bad experience as a kid in Saudi Arabia and only so-so experience as an adult in Australia.

For specialists, I will not go to anyone not certified here, but seek white American males when I can. For GPs I seldom have an option as the vast majority in my network are foreign.

This I what I was going to say. I'm in charge of care for my parents who are both very medically complex, and we've had really good experiences with Indian physicians.

I try to choose American-born whites or American-born East Asians in order to avoid anyone who benefitted from DEI.
