6. Portugal
Net Monthly Income: around $1,300
Number of Physicians per 10,000: 41
Safety Index: 65.45
While Portugal doesn’t have the best salary as compared to other countries on the list, the number of physicians available, as well as the safety of the country, easily makes up for it. Its Safety Index is at 65.45 which is higher than that of the United States and the UK.
One thing you may consider when looking for a medical job here is that there are a lot of requirements. Non-EU members especially need more documentation to prove their education. Despite that, many foreign doctors prefer it in Portugal because of the people, culture, weather, and its proximity to the ocean.
