Until very recently that was the norm, my wife is doctor in a public hospital. Here in Mallorca they are closing 2 public hospitals and the private ones don´t have money to pay their employees. Doctors always can emigrate to Dubai, Australia or places where they can get high salaries but most spanish doctors won´t move from Madrid to Toledo just to get a job, much less go to a place where you have to learn a foreign language and be far from the family.

Maybe 1000€ for doctors is a bit too low is true, but this year we are going to see stuff like that for people who doesn´t want to move away from their city.
