Every one of these sits on an official list, published by a body with nothing to sell.

Questions

How many English-speaking doctors are there in Belgium?
We list 34, in 4 cities. That is the number whose working language we can trace to a published source, not the number that exists.
Which city has the most?
Brussels, with 19 of the 34.
Is English unusual for doctors in Belgium?
100% of the 34 doctors we hold in Belgium are recorded as working in English. A consular list records the language because the mission publishes it for its own citizens, so the figure reflects who publishes lists, not only who speaks what.
