How to read this table
The differences between rows allow for comparing the total number of medical workers with narrow specialties, such as surgeons or general practitioners. Examining the series separately reveals which specific specialists contributed to the growth or decline of the total number of physicians in the healthcare system. Comparing these indicators helps visualize the structure of medical staff in dynamics over the past decades
