Fellowship Grants For Doctors Making Aliyah

From an email:
Fellowship Grants For Doctors Making Aliyah

There's never been a better time for doctors to make Aliyah

Nefesh B'Nefesh is pleased to announce:

Significant fellowship grants and supplementary income packages are
now available for qualified physicians moving to Israel.

Israel will experience a serious shortage of doctors in the next few
years. The projected population increase in Israel coupled with the
noticeable trend of physicians leaving the medical profession will
reduce the current ratio of 3.5 physicians for every 1,000
individuals, to less than 2.5.

In order to be eligible, physicians must:
• Be under the age of 45
• Have U.S., Canadian or U.K. citizenship
• Practice at least nine months a year in Israel.

Doctors who participate in this program can benefit from:
1. Significant financial assistance of up to $60,000 which will be
provided in the form of:
• An initial grant upon arrival in Israel, and
• Monthly supplementary income for the first two years
2. Assistance with licensing
