Canadian Journal of Rural Medicine, 07/27/09
Dove N – The problem of physician distribution in rural Canada is a complex and enduring issue that is unlikely to be solved exclusively through licensing more IMGs. International medical graduates clearly have an important role in alleviating acute shortages and providing temporary relief for Canada's overworked and overextended rural physician workforce. However, increased IMG licensing is unlikely to lead to long–term retention in rural communities without being part of a broader strategy to increase domestic rural physician supply and retention rates, a position supported by the Canadian Medical Association and Society of Rural Physicians of Canada.
