Talk:Emergency Medicine/Organization of emergency medicine

I don't know anything about the background of whoever wrote the EM entry, but it certainly doesn't apply to the US. Emergency Medicine is a specialty in its own right, with dedicated residency programs. "ER physicians may work in an Emergency Room, but are always trained in another specialty (such as Pulmonology, Anaestisology, Critical Care, Cardiology, or any multitude of specialties), and so commonly end up treating patients in the Emergency Room and then continuing their long-term care afterwards" is simply false in the States. Some EM docs do fellowships, but the majority are board-certified in EM alone.

Whoever wrote the "Disposition" section needs to do some extra research. What he's written is patently false.
