According to findings in the American Journal of Medicine, patients whose
doctors had practiced for at least 20 years stayed longer in the hospital and
were more likely to die compared to those whose doctors got their medical
license in the past five years.
no doubt this raises serious questions and supports the evidence based approach
and the need for doctors to remain seasoned and in touch with not just the needs
of the patient but the updated science.
