As knowledge expands, more specialists are needed to cope with the complexities of each of the medical disciplines. And as more people begin to use the health care facilities, more generalists are needed to handle all of the "common" problems of patients. The increase in demand for services and the corresponding influx of people to the profession are creating a stress on the entire system.
