Every time I took a vacation in Greece (and I took plenty in the last 20 years) and I had to visit the doctor (for the kids mostly) it was either Romanian or Bulgarian. Same in Italy and Spain. Also other people working in the turism industry: cooks, chambermaids, reception and so on and so forth.
Pay is not the only criteria. Some select for the culture, lifestyle, similar language, etc.
- atmosx 2y agoAll the doctors I know from ex-soviet countries are married or have family established in Greece and they are old. Many are of Greek heritage, but their culture is Russian, Ukranian, Bulgarian because they grew up there. Like, above 45. However, you're correct that salary might not be the only criteria. That said, the Greek healthcare systems is already too thin, in ten years there will be a huge crisis due to lack of personnel. Most islands go by without doctors. During the summer these islands get flooded with ppl.
