“…Studies show that perceptions of lifestyle, work hours, malpractice costs, and income influence specialty choice, [12][13][14][15][16][17][18] and factors specific to obstetrics and gynecology, such as continutiy of patient care, surgical opportunities, and a healthy patient population, can make the field more attractive. 12 Nonetheless, evidence does still suggest that the clerkship experience remains an important influential factor.…”
