At our firm and in physician healthcare news we have heard a lot about the physician shortage, particularly the current and impending shortage in primary care. However other specialties are currently experiencing a shortage as well with the future predicting an increase in physician specialty shortages.
The New England Journal of Medicine has posted a table referencing the shortage of pediatric specialty physicians in their latest addition of Recruiting Physicians Today. The table shows what pediatric specialties are most in demand per US state.
According to their data, at least 16 US states lack at least one of 13 pediatric sub-specialty physicians.
