This seems to be a problem across countries despite different healt h systems, although Norwegian doctors report less discontent than others.

It is planned and organized th rough collaboration between NERI, New England Research Institutes, Massachusetts, USA and LEFO, the Institute for Studies of the Medical Profession, Oslo, Norway.
