I don't see why you can't.
2 :
yup yup you can, you can visit any place for 3 months(Remember that the EU is now one giant country) unless you get a work visa so if your planning on doing it illegally or legally you can work there for a summer!

That is very unlikely or at least unpractical. First of all the EU is not "one big country". Each country has it's own rules for work permits and especially medical licenses. Only citizens of EU member countries have the right to live and work there. US citizens have to apply for residency permits, work permits and medical certification. This is not easy or done quickly. And Austrians would expect you to speak their native language fluently to get work! Do you speak fluent German? Coworkers and patients alike would expect that - speaking English alone would not be acceptable. @askmelater The three months tourist visa you are referring to does NOT allow you to work! If you do you will be deported and banned from entering Europe for several years. If you practice medicine without certification you will go to jail first. ---- P.S. I wonder how many people reading this question will confuse Austria with Australia as usual?
