Same in Sweden, it is rare to meet a Swedish doctor at the 'vårdcentral' (group practice). In my infrequent visits with one of my children I've met doctors from Iran, from Iraq, from Germany and from the Netherlands but not from Sweden. Nurses tend to come from Sweden. What seems to happen is that Swedish doctors find work in e.g. Norway where the pay is a lot higher while the working environment is less stressful. That in itself is also a bit of an oddity since Swedish doctors don't see as many patients per day as those in e.g. the Netherlands do.
