A shortage of doctors is now an urgent problem on the medical scene in Japan.The current situation of pulmonary doctors in Nagano was analyzed by a questionnaire survey,in which we also estimated the present state of pulmonary medicine in the Jo-Sho region. We sent out a questionnaire asking about the number of pulmonary physicians, the number of sickbeds, and the types of pulmonary disease patients in nineteen institutions affiliated with our institution. We also evaluated the relative status of pulmonary medicine at the Shinshu-Ueda Medical Center (formerly the National Nagano Hospital). Thirteen institutions responded to the survey.Ten out of the thirteen institutions felt there is a shortage of pulmonary physicians. The number of patients with pulmonary disease was significantly larger in large institutions (with more than 300 sickbeds).Although the pulmonary division of Shinshu-Ueda Medical Center specializes in pulmonary medicine (95% of inpatients in this division had pulmonary problems), the doctorpatient ratio was the highest among all the large institutions.
