well i disagree with several of you on this subject.. many filipino doctors and several i have encountered in cebu have not been fit to call themselves doctors... i wouldnt trust them opening a can of beans let alone my stomach.... The standard of teaching for filipino docs is not as good as western hospitals... in one hospital in particular in cebu there is 2 floors dedicated to CARDIOLOGISTS must be 60 of them all in their little offices... they are no more cardiologists than I am.. I think they just have a diploma in it... they certainly couldnt perform any surgery.... So thats just one instant.. gyneocology is another.. So I agree with the UK setting higher standards.. Yes i also agree there should be checks on others in the EU coming into the UK.. There are crap doctors from other countries within the EU.
