Overseas doctors on rewards and challenges of studying and working in Ireland

We ask three overseas female doctors and a medical student about studying and working in Ireland and to highlight the difference between our medical system and that of their home country  

Some of the healthcare workers and students that make a world of difference to their patients and our system.

AHEAD of International Women’s Day next Wednesday, we talk to four women — all from overseas — who are doing valuable medical work in Ireland.

We ask why they came to Ireland. What were their first impressions? We invite them to compare the Irish women’s health system with their home country’s. And we ask them about the changes they’d make in our health system to support women.
