dc.description.abstract	In Germany and in German-speaking Switzerland, due to a shortage of medical doctors, many physicians have been recruited from abroad. While studies on trained doctors with a migration background exist with regard to English-speaking countries, international medical doctors and psychologists using German as their professional medium are underresearched. Based on 17 interviews, the present study explores how these international doctors experience readjustment in their professional identities when working in a foreign healthcare environment. A focus is on the challenges they face in their daily work and how they employ multilingual language competencies in interaction with national and international patients. The study aims to determine stages of international doctors’ development processes towards a multilingual and interculturally competent professionalism in terms of language, institutional practice and sociopragmatic aspects of healthcare in their host country.	de_CH
