WOMEN DOCTORS INCREASE

Saturation Point Reached

BUT THEY ARE BETTER. THAN MEN

More men and women are be hcoming doctors than ever before. The British Medical Journal has been examining the figures of the Medical Register and it views the outlook with some misgivings. “Some think that the saturation the point has been reached.” Journal states, "and that there is a real risk of an overstocked pro- fession." For 1934 the figures show 57,496 doctors on the regis- ter, and increase of 1,664 during the year and nearly 7,500 more than the figure for 1924, 15,000 than in 1914 and 19,000 more than in 1904

It will be a surprise to many people to learn from the figures that of medical practitioners regis- tered to-day nearly 10 per cent. are women. There is an increas- ing demand by the public for the services of women doctors in all branches of medicine,” says the Journal "Statistics show that the proportion who make good is as high as, if not somewhat higher than, that of their men colleagues."
