But Magson says some progress has been made
GP recruitment on the Isle of Man is something that's continually 'taxed' the Department of Health and Social Care.
That's according to the interim chief executive who says despite this some progress has been made in the past few months.
Kathryn Magson gave evidence to a Social Affairs Policy Review Committee yesterday.
She says a number of initiatives have proved helpful in attracting new doctors to the Island:

Working hard 'no longer enough to afford to buy a home'
Treasury writes off £340,000 in benefits overpayments in three years
Manxman to return to service following repairs
Discussions ongoing over meningitis B vaccine rollout
Health minister apologises for confusion over ambulance centre funding
