Survey Compares Rural and Urban/Suburban Physicians
The nation's current doctor shortage is most acute in rural America, and an aging U.S. population combined with an increased interest in "quality of life" issues will likely make the situation worse before it gets better, according to representatives from www.LocumTenens.com. The physician recruitment firm recently surveyed doctors to better understand their perceptions of practicing medicine in rural America versus practicing in areas with populations of 50,000 or more.
The survey found that there may be fewer differences, at least clinically, between practicing in rural areas and urban ones than one might think.
