Ep. 187 Urology Trends: AUA 2023 Census Report Highlights with Dr. Amanda North and Dr. Matthew Nielsen
03 Sep 2024
Full Episode
This week on the Backtable Podcast. 85% of women in urology say that they have some sort of burnout. I mean, it's really bad, but only 17% are seeking professional help. And one of the things, again, this goes back to our advocacy efforts, is to understand the impact of state licensing requirements.
43%.
So we're working on a paper. We're looking at the data now. It's in the beginning stages to look at which states ask these types of questions on their licensing renewals. And if that specifically has an impact on whether or not people said that they were afraid for their state licenses, because every state is different and not all states ask those types of questions.
Hello and welcome once again to Backtable Urology Podcast, your educational resource for all things urological and then some. As a reminder, Backtable Urology offers many informative episodes that you can find on iTunes, Spotify, And of course, on backtable.com.
I'm your host today, Dr. Suzette Sutherland, and I'm super excited to have two guests today to talk to us about the 2023 AUA census data. We have Dr. Amanda North and Dr. Matthew Nielsen.
This is vital data about our urological community, about our urological workforce, and our practice patterns that really help us to inform our future directions for policy efforts and overall urological care as well. So again, super excited to be talking about some of the pertinent things that came out of the AUA census data with all of you here today.
So before we get started, I'm going to do a formal introduction, of course, of our two guests. They are very well known in the broader urological community already, but I'll go ahead and do the formal introduction nonetheless. First, we have Dr. Amanda North.
She is chair of the AUA Data Committee, so the committee that really was quite responsible for all of the data here, collecting it with the AUA census, putting it together, and then looking at what does it really mean. She's associate professor of pediatric urology, so that's her specialty, and she's division chief now at Children's Hospital at Montfiori in the Bronx, New York.
So welcome, Dr. Amanda North. Thank you so much for having us. Our next guest is Dr. Matthew Nielsen. He's chair of the AUA Science and Quality Council, so also was quite involved in the data and what does it mean for us. He's professor of urology and may know chair of urology at University of North Carolina in Chapel Hill, and his specialty is urologic oncology. Hello, Dr. Nielsen.
