Demand for Doctors in U.S. Jumps

5 (UPI) -- Researchers from Doximity, a health care networking company, found that in many parts of the United States, the need for doctors is in high demand, a report says. They poured over 8,000 physician job advertisements throughout large U.S. metropolitan areas in 2017 and 2018, and found a 7 percent year-over-year uptick in job growth, along with a healthy spike in compensation for doctors in various regions throughout the country. Meanwhile, Little Rock, Des Moines, Omaha, Milwaukee and Philadelphia saw the biggest jumps in compensation for physicians.
