Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter, a physician of noteworthy and recognized professional attainment who is a clearly outstanding physician and who has been offered by the dean of a medical school in this state a full-time academic appointment, shall be eligible for a limited registration while serving on the academic staff of the medical school. Upon recommendation of the dean of an accredited school of medicine in this state, the board in its discretion, after being satisfied that the applicant is a graduate of a foreign medical school and a person of professional rank whose knowledge and special training will benefit the medical school in this state, may issue to this physician a limited registration to engage in the practice of medicine to the extent that this practice is incidental to a necessary part of his or her academic appointment and then only in the hospital or hospitals and outpatient clinics connected with the medical school.
