The dermatology workforce shortage
Abstract
Background While many dermatology workforce projections over the past two decades forecasted an impending oversupply, more recent reports have begun to suggest a shortage of dermatologic services.Methods Anonymous surveys administered to practicing dermatologists and to recent training graduates were examined for surrogate indicators of the supply and demand for dermatologic services.Results The mean wait time for new patient appointments with dermatologists was 36 calendar days, but ranged widely based on location (means ranged from 9-120 days by state). About half (49%) of practicing dermatologists feel that they need more dermatologists in their communities, while only 20% describe the local supply as too high. The reported need for medical and general dermatologists is far more acute than for dermatologic subspecialists. Many practices (33%) are looking for new associates, and not surprisingly, most new graduates entering the workforce over the past 4 years (86-93%) do not describe any difficulty finding desirable positions. Fewer than 10% of recent graduates are dissatisfied with their current jobs.Conclusion Based on survey data examining wait times, physician perception, use of physician extenders, searches for new employees, and experience of recent graduates entering the workforce, it appears there is an inadequate supply of dermatologists to meet the demand for services.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
