In 2023, the distribution of practising physicians aged 35-44 varied significantly by country. The United States led with a substantial share of 31.51%, followed by Japan and the United Kingdom, with 10.95% and 10.6%, respectively. While most countries saw modest increases, Chile experienced notable growth (10.69%), and Greece faced a decline (-8.2%). Central and Eastern European countries like Hungary and Slovenia showed negative or minimal growth, indicating possible demographic or systemic challenges in retaining young physicians.
Future trends to watch include the potential increase in physician shares in emerging countries, perhaps driven by strategic healthcare investments. Conversely, developed countries may face further retention challenges as physician demographics shift globally. Continued monitoring of policies and education programs affecting these trends could be essential.
