Perhaps we should ship all our resident-ready medical students off to third world countries where the needs are great so they can become proficient very quickly. Perhaps our system has become too soft. The problem is they would become proficient at treating the wrong things. Medical conditions vary greatly by geography. Polio is still alive in the third world, Russia is fighting drug resistant TB, and up thread there is a mention of a surgery performed at a 1000x rate in India compared to the US(Once a decade vs once a day). All the while what affects Americans would be glossed over because it doesn't infect the rest of the world at the same rates.
