PRESS STATEMENT: The Society is convinced the Hong Kong Medical Licensing Examination (HKMLE) is the only fair and reliable mechanism in determining a doctor’s ability to practise in Hong Kong. The Society has deep concerns over the latest proposed amendments to the Medical Registration Ordinance and the affects on patient care.
The Legislative Council has again raised for discussion possible changes to the current mechanism for non-locally trained doctors to practice medicine in Hong Kong. With regards to that topic, our Society believes it is of utmost importance that we retain a high standard of medical practice in Hong Kong. The Society strongly supports keeping Hong Kong’s exam, and maintaining high professional standards. Please see our press release for further details.
關於特首林鄭月娥於施政報告答問會上提出研究引入海外醫生的計劃,本會有以下回應:
1.
作為由海外受醫學訓練的醫生,能夠經過嚴謹執業試考核而為香港市民服務,感到非常榮幸。 本會歡迎非本地訓練醫生以同一專業途徑來港執業, 齊心為香港市民服務。
2.
本會強烈支持保留醫生執業資格試。我們認為一個公平公正的專業考試,是唯一能夠客觀持平考核一個醫生能力的方法。
3.
本會嚴正反對某些議員將香港醫療的問題歸咎在所謂的「醫生不足」。醫療系統不足的包括其他專業人員,例如護士、物理治療師、職業治療師等等,以及器材及基建上的短缺。將焦點放在「輸入」海外醫生,無疑是分散公眾對真正問題的注意力。
4.
本會非常願意與政府溝通,協助改善現行制度,以及改善醫管局工作環境, 吸引更多非本地訓練醫生來港執業,但前提是醫生專業需要受到尊重,奉行專業自主,保持香港高水準的醫療水平。
