An investigation claims fellowship doctors are paid about £10,000 per year less than others.
BBC News West MidlandsDoctors can work in English hospitals for two years as fellows to gain experience to implement in practice in their home countries.
The BMJ found an agreement between the College of Physicians and Surgeons Pakistan with University Hospitals Birmingham NHS Foundation Trust , Dudley Group NHS Foundation Trust, and Walsall Healthcare NHS Trust led to trainees being paid less than trust-employed workers. One consultant, who spoke to the BMJ anonymously, claimed UHB was using fellows as "cheap labour", although another senior medic at the trust praised the scheme for its training opportunities, but highlighted a lack of equal pay and rights.
