This certainly is needed and hopefully the new AU and Dothan DO schools can provide more primary care doctors to the Black Belt and other areas of shortage. It's hard to keep good doctors in rural areas.
This is the Primary benifit. Huge #'s Of Boomers, and not enough Dr's to go around.

quote:the biggest problem not being addressed is with the growth of new med schools (primarily recently of the DO variety), there is not a similar increase in the number of residencies to train these med graduates. thats going to create a bottleneck and end up not alleviating the problem.
