#Physician density has nearly doubled since 1970 — yet only 15–20% of #physicians belong to the @AmerMedicalAssn, and rural county #medicalsocieties are consolidating to survive. In “We’ve Subspecialized Ourselves Into Isolation,” I explore how expanding subspecialization, employed practice models (now >77%), and proliferating specialty societies have fragmented our professional identity — often at the expense of local engagement. From my experience in Eureka, CA, county medical societies still matter. They advocate locally, defend public health, assist with regulatory/payer challenges, and help build future workforce pipelines. As we narrow our clinical focus, are we also narrowing our professional community? #OrganizedMedicine #PhysicianLeadership #RuralHealth @CMAdocs @CalRadSociety @ASTRO_org @RadiologyACR @ACRORadOnc @fjlexa @SameerKeoleMD @PresAmerMed opmed.doximity.com/articles/… via @doximity
