Retiring trends: The role of artificial intelligence in mitigating the urologist shortage in Canada.
The aging urologist workforce in Canada is becoming an urgent issue, as a growing number of specialists are approaching retirement. This phenomenon is mirrored across the globe, particularly in the United States and other developed countries. A shortage of urologists threatens patient care, especially in rural and underserved areas, where access is already limited. This review explores the factors driving urologist retirement in Canada and discusses how emerging technologies like artificial intelligence could help manage workforce challenges.
