Doctor Shortage Looming
It's starting to be recognized that, in the near future, fewer and fewer doctors will be available to treat America's population. Why?
Presently, women outnumber men in medical schools so there will be a majority of females in the medical profession before long -- AND -- studies have shown that female doctors work significantly fewer hours seeing fewer patients than male doctors.
Therefore, male doctors working long hours seeing many patients will be replaced with female doctors working abbreviated schedules seeing not too many patients.
Debbie Schlussel explains.
