British Medicine: Hospital bosses admit 'some of our doctors can't speak or understand English'

The Daily Mail reports:
The level of English among some foreign doctors is ‘absolutely awful’, hospital bosses have said.

Some cannot even speak well enough to communicate with patients, they warned.

Bosses at Queen’s Hospital in Burton upon Trent, Staffordshire, revealed the poor level of English in their doctors from overseas after complaints from both staff and patients.


Great moments in socialized medicine.
