This incident has revived concerns about the quality of healthcare in Taiwan and highlighted ongoing debates regarding the legitimacy and impact of these doctors in the medical field. The term “BoBo Doctors” refers to Taiwanese students who fail to gain entry into domestic medical programs and instead pursue medical degrees in countries like Poland and other Eastern European nations.
