The Medical and Dental Council has called on the government to set up a committee of enquiry into the licensing of foreign medical practitioners and foreign health outfits, especially Chinese clinics, in the country.
Professor Paul K. Nyame, chairman of the Council, made the call in his address at the First Business Dinner of the Council in Accra on Saturday.
He said that members of the Council were not happy that such practitioners from the Far East, who were not registered with the Council, operated orthodox clinics in the country.
“These Orientals came here with the pretext that they are here to practice traditional medicine and yet carry on the practice with all the equipment and accoutrements of modern allopathic orthodox medicine”, he stated.
