Business Daily - Why are medical students going to Bulgaria?
Download Why are medical students going to Bulgaria?
We head to the Eastern European country to find out why it's become so popular with people from the UK and elsewhere in the world, who are going there to study medicine.
And we hear how Bulgaria is dealing with its own issues in retaining healthcare workers, as it faces a 'brain drain' to other countries and sectors.
Produced and presented by Gill Dummigan
