Documentation at the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Saragossa, scattered throughout many archives, made it possible to trace the evolution of the number of physicians and surgeons in the city of Saragossa in the Modern Age with regard to the number of inhabitants of this city. Also studied are the possible causes of increases or decreases in their numbers, and the proportions of physicians and surgeons to inhabitants are compared with figures from other Spanish regions. By studying a 1723 census, the social and family structures of the different health professions in Saragossa are analyzed. Comparisons of these figures to the structures of other professions made it possible to determine the different social level of each structure. The social level of physicians was the same as that of apothecaries, whereas it was higher than that of surgeons and veterinarians and lower than that of legal professionals, notaries and jurists.
萨拉戈萨医师与外科医师学院的文献分散在众多档案中，这使得追溯近代萨拉戈萨市医师和外科医师数量相对于该市居民数量的演变成为可能。同时，还研究了其数量增减的可能原因，并将医师和外科医师与居民的比例与西班牙其他地区的数据进行了比较。通过研究1723年的人口普查，分析了萨拉戈萨不同医疗行业的社会和家庭结构。将这些数据与其他行业的结构进行比较，从而确定了每种结构的不同社会水平。医师的社会水平与药剂师相同，高于外科医师和兽医，低于法律专业人员、公证人和法学家。
