Clinical practice

The Doctor by Sir Luke Fildes (1891)

Elizabeth Blackwell, the first female physician in the United States graduated from SUNY Upstate (1847)

Medical availability and clinical practice varies across the world due to regional differences in culture and technology. Modern scientific medicine is highly developed in the Western world, while in developing countries such as parts of Africa or Asia, the population may rely more heavily on traditional medicine with limited evidence and efficacy and no required formal training for practitioners.
