Great. That was a great insight into that. Thank you. So let's dive into some of the data that we see in that. It was broken up initially into primary observations up front, some highlighted summaries. So clearly, you know, the committees that went through all of the data found that these were really the highlights or the take-home points. So We don't have enough time to talk about all of them.

Of course, this isn't meant to be exhausted, but I've picked out a few that I think people are pretty passionate about. And so we want to look at some of those. We'll start off, of course, just about what's the demographics, right? What do we look like, our urological community here in the United States?

I mean, that's really almost half, right? So a state like North Dakota has half of what New York does. That's amazing if you think about it in that term. So, yeah.

So as more people retire, I think there was some data too about the anticipated retirement age, which was about 67. And so as we look at that age group, as they're aging and they are retiring, and most of those are men, very few are women, but yet more women are coming in down the pike. Right. On the other end, it really is going to change our urological landscape a bit. Right.

And I would imagine also change some of the traditional priorities within urology, things like that. Maybe Dr. North, maybe you didn't notice I'm wearing my swoop in here. So maybe you can address some of those issues, too.

Yeah, just to put some numbers on that, the census said that the average patient encounter per week, how many? For men was 74. The average overall was 73. But since there are more men, of course, then for men it was 74 and women was 63. So to your point, you know, some would look at that as a pretty big difference. But then when you also looked at how many minutes per encounter was 16 minutes per
