There are "more doctors than ever" coming to work in Britain from Europe, says the General Medical Council.
Southern Europe now provides more doctors than South Asia to the UK, which was previously the main source.
The GMC said the tightening of immigration rules for people outside the continent could explain the change.
In an annual report, the regulator also said more women were working in "traditionally male" areas such as surgery and emergency medicine.
