Aging boom reshapes need for geriatricians in Putnam County
Betty Wills searches Putnam County for a geriatrician and finds none though seniors make up a fifth of the 74,000 residents. The article notes a nationwide shortage, with about one geriatrician for every 2,600 people 75 and older, and projections worsening to 1 per 3,800 by 2030. It highlights low pay, debt, and training gaps as factors. Dr. Rosanne Leipzig and other experts warn of an endangered specialty, while policy efforts and medical education reforms strive to boost geriatrics training and care for aging populations.
