Nice straw man though.
It's not a straw man because it's a stand alone argument, rather than a distortion. It's also valid because you are currently losing doctors from the system all together, which is totally relevant to the discussion. If his argument is based upon the fact that we are losing doctors in the scenario of privatization, but yet we are also losing doctors in the current scenario, then it is not unreasonable to question if they are equivocal.

And living in the US may stop some, but it's also an incentive for some. And if the gains, outweigh the negatives of living the US, then you get net migration.
