Hospitals and Medical Schools as Factors in the Selection of Location of Practice.

Stefanu, Constantine; And Others

Journal of Medical Education, v54 n5 p379-83 May 1979

The relationship between the state in which a physician practices and the location of residency training was studied using 467 subjects from the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School. Findings suggest that additional residencies filled by medical graduates from the same state might increase the retention rate of medical practitioners. (Author/LBH)
