I'm not sure I'm getting the big picture on this, they are on strike because the government wants to train more doctors? Surely that's a good thing?

It's about pay. If the market is flooded, the hospitals will be free to lower their wages substantially because they'll have more replacements available or they'll be working with more people on the same budget.
