Quick Glance: Smaller Towns in South Korea Struggle with Doctor Shortage
- Hospitals in South Korea's smaller cities are facing a shortage of physicians as a nationwide strike by trainee doctors continues to protest plans to increase medical school admissions.
- While Seoul has top-tier hospitals, smaller towns are suffering from a lack of doctors, exacerbated by an aging population and the world's lowest birth rates.
- South Korea has one of the lowest doctor-to-patient ratios among developed countries, prompting government efforts to increase medical school enrollments, a move met with resistance from trainee doctors and medical groups.
- Addressing the shortage of doctors in underserved areas and preventing them from clustering in Seoul requires not just an increase in doctor numbers but also policy changes, according to experts in the field.
