Recognition of a German medical specialist qualification in Corfu, Greece

30.1.2002

WRITTEN QUESTION E-0275/02
by Jannis Sakellariou (PSE)
to the Commission

Following a decision of 13 October 2000 by the Greek Ministry of Health in Athens (No. Y9a/6376) the sonography certificate of a fully qualified gynaecologist trained in Germany is not immediately recognised in Greece. The specialist first has to study for a further six months in a clinic before taking another examination. Does this comply with EU directives?
