Older doctors can probably diagnose TB better, but I would wonder if that can be used as a core competency measure of a doctor. Also, I believe there are cases younger doctors diagnose a lesser-known disease when older ones could not.
There can be all different sorts of anecdotes, but the link was about a study with more than 100k doctors, which would be a stronger evidence that the probability of survival is better for patients with younger doctors.
