American doctors make the biggest number of foreign medics licensed to operate in Kenya, a newly-published report shows in a revelation that is likely to shift focus away from the 100 Cuban doctors expected in the country later this month.
The Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Board’s (KMPDB) 2018 breakdown of the nationalities of foreign doctors shows that there were 1,019 foreign doctors licensed to practice in Kenya by end of March, 358 of them American.
