Abstract
Currently there is a higher rate of population growth relative to surgical workforce expansion. Innovative approaches in surgical training are crucial to meet 2030 workforce targets. The non-progression in the ratio of female to male surgeons demands attention. Future workforce planning should recognize the growing impact of female doctors on the healthcare workforce and prioritize strategies to support women in surgical careers.
